The Persian Comedy Powerhouse performs his acclaimed new show

Omid Djalili is probably one of the most subversive comics currently doing the rounds on the UK comedy circuit.  

“I’ve been breaking away from the Middle Eastern pigeonhole that you people [journalists] have unfairly put me in,” says Omid. “I’m a citizen of the world, and I will not be defined by cultural stereotypes. I have a specific viewpoint, which many call ‘Djalili-esque’, and I think my material reflects that. Would you like a carpet? Visit my website. I also sell fried chicken, mayonnaise, motorcycle insurance and viagra, very fine price.”

Omid is visiting Leamington this month with Namaste, a show in which he ‘peacefully bows to his inner anger and unleashes a torrent of comedic vitriol upon the current state of this dangerously messed-up planet’.
