Ali Al Sayed and Mina Liccione Live

There’s no shortage of exceptional comedy in Dubai this August, and now Dubai’s own comics are returning to the stage, with acclaimed UAE comedian Ali Al Sayed and Emirates-based New Yorker Mina Liccione set to perform at Dubai Opera on Friday August 21. They are joined by special guest comedians throughout the night, and DJ Tala Samman.

The two comedy icons have performed for Comedy Central, MBC and MTC. Award-winning Emirati comedian Ali Al Sayed has been performing since 2008, including gigs at the likes of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and regular stints on Comedy Central Arabia.

Mina Liccione has also performed the Fringe Fest, in addition to appearing on MTV’s The Grind, and is currently on Comedy Central Arabia as part of its Balcony Series.

The show is presented by local comedy club Dubomedy and Dubai Opera, as part of Dubai Summer Surprises. They have planned out a night of fun and laughter to lift spirits as summer rolls to a slow and steady end with a line-up of talented guest comics.
