SUMMARY:The Laughter Factory Premium Comedy Club
DESCRIPTION:This month’s Laughter Factory tour moves into midweek: \nRory O’Hanlon The Irish comedian is a firm favourite at the Fringe\, thanks to his rapid-fire delivery – “a joke every 30 seconds” calculated the Irish Times. Highly recommended. \nDarius Davies Definitely one of the most underrated comedians on the circuit: “supercharged\, and charismatic” said Chortle. We don’t think he’s actually at the Fringe this year\, but he was the best reviewed comedian there in 2021 … \nTABARAK A winner of the Short & Sweet Comedy Festival\, Espana Comedy Games and Beat The Camel\, Born in Karachi but living now in Dubai\, he’s a good observational comic with spot-on delivery. \nFuture dates: \n25 July The Club\, Abu Dhabi\n26 July Radisson DAMAC Hills\n27 July Dukes The Palm \nShow tickets are AED 160 for all gigs and all shows start at 8.30pm. \n\n  \n
