There will also be limited seating capacity so get your tickets as soon as possible! Enough virtual world, it is time to come out and interact with real people once more and have a 3D experience!

“VIU Comedy Box Office – Bring the Funny AGAIN”, is a show brought to you by VIU and Tall Tales Production, bringing a whole lot of comedy and fun into one night. The show is a mix of stand-up comedy specials (ala Netflix originals), and improvisational comedy  (ala Whose line is it anyways). The show promises to be a laugh riot with no less than 4 nationalities on the cast. This includes Pakistani, Indian, Sri-Lankan, and Bahraini artists.  The show will be in English and Hindi mix.

“The first show was a hit, and people wanted more!” says Asad Raza Khan the producer and special guest improvisation master for the show. “People are fed up of staring at screens all day (work and then entertainment) and wanted something different. We tried putting something together to cater to these  needs in a  safe and responsible way and support the local arts scene. They gave us so much love in the first show, that we decided to add another one and go bigger and better!”. Saad Haroon, who is flying  in for the show, is excited to be back! “I have come to Dubai every year for the past 15 years and every time this place amazes me more. The way people are being responsible and embracing the new normal is an example for countries all over the world! Looking to share some laughs together as we navigate  through this episode of  Black Mirror together”. Arzoo cannot wait to be back on stage, “Being locked in at home during the quarantine made me realize how much I love being on stage. I’m so excited to get back to performing! I love the chance to make people laugh, particularly in these crazy times, and people can expect me to try my very best to do just that.

So come and support the arts and enjoy some laughs in a very safe and secure environment (which  is  not watching TV at home which we have become used to!) with relevant material on current affairs, romance, relationships, cricket, politics, shawarma, karma, Karama, and a whole lot more. “VIU Comedy Box Office  –  Bring the Funny AGAIN” playing on Saturday October 10th,  2020  at The  Junction at  8  pm with tickets priced at 70  AED (what! That’s it?!) on Book My Show.
