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.
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. He was the winner of the first annual Richard Pryor Award for ethnic comedy at the Edinburgh Festival. He has appeared in several films and television shows such as Executive Decision, Swingers, Roseanne, JAG, Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn on Comedy Central, and MTV's Punk'd with Ashton Kutcher.
