Get ready, Singapore! Hollywood’s favorite anti-hero and comedy powerhouse, Omid Djalili, is coming to Southeast Asia with his critically acclaimed new show. Mark your calendars for September 21st at 8:00 PM at the HO BEE THEATRE (UCC).
Omid Djalili, an award-winning British-Iranian actor and stand-up comedian, has been praised as one of the UK’s irreplaceable stage and screen talents. Known for his roles in blockbusters like “The Mummy,” “Gladiator,” “Notting Hill,” and “Pirates of the Caribbean III,” Omid has also made his mark on television with shows like “The Omid Djalili Show” on BBC1 and “Whoopi” alongside Whoopi Goldberg.
A constant figure at the Edinburgh Festivals, Omid has a string of sell-out comedy shows under his belt, including “Short Fat Kebab Shop Owner’s Son,” “Arab & The Jew,” and “Omid Djalili Is Ethnic.” His comedy style masterfully combines humor with poignant observations, drawing from his British-Iranian heritage, culture, and extensive global travels.
Touring Malaysia and Singapore with LOL ASIA, “Namaste” is more than just a comedy show—it’s an experience. Audiences can expect an evening filled with rib-poking laughter and thought-provoking anecdotes, all delivered with Omid’s trademark charm and impeccable timing.
The Huffington Post describes his show as “so hysterically funny and at the same time so poignant and powerful that calling it stand-up barely does it justice.” Omid warns that no audience leaves his show with an ounce of laughter left in them, so be prepared for an unforgettable night.
