A second helping of comedy with Ahmed Ahmed

An Egyptian comic? Now that's one show I'd like to see, and if you'd like to too, and you're in the Gauteng region, and you have money to spend, and you have friends to go with, and if you like pina-coladas and getting caught in the rain, the-en you're in luck - the Montecasino is hosting the Jozi International Comedy Festival this year and Ahmed Ahmed is on the comic roll.

23 Jul 2009

Comedy heavy-weight Ahmed Ahmed (Egypt) who regularly performs at The Comedy Store in Hollywood and has toured all across the US and Europe will make his debut appearance in South Africa.
