Widely regarded as one of the hottest comedy nights among the Arab community and beyond, Arabs Are Not Funny returns! After 18 sold-out shows, this special AWAN Edition presents an unmissable all-female line-up of comedians representing the Arab world and surrounding regions.

LINE-UP:

Ella Al-Shamahi
A National Geographic Explorer, BBC presenter, a palaeoanthropologist specialising in fossil hunting in caves in unstable, hostile & disputed territories – who also just happens to be a stand-up comic.

Janine Harouni
A Lebanese-American comedian based in London. Winner of the 2018 Laughing Horse New Act of the Year and star of Comedy Central’s ‘Modern Horror Stories’, she’s also been featured on Comic Relief, BBC Three, and BBC Radio Four as a nominee for the BBC New Comedy Award.

★★★★’Capable of huge acts of slapstick and subtle impressions in equal measure’ –The Skinny

Isabelle Farah
A British-Lebanese actress, comedian and admin monkey. Unsure whether she is more at home in both the Lebanese Mountains or the mountains of Muswell Hill, Isabelle has a long history of trying hard but failing miserably at being a serious person, which is how she found herself in comedy!


Suitable for ages 16+
