Omid Djalili: Namaste

Presented by Bound & Gagged Comedy
£33
Leeds Grand Theatre
Book Now

The Persian comedy powerhouse performs his critically acclaimed new show Namaste where Omid peacefully bows to his inner anger and unleashes a torrent of comedic vitriol upon the current state of this dangerously messed up planet.

No government gets a green card. No tyrant avoids a takedown. No audience member leaves the theatre with an ounce of laughter left in them.

You have been warned.

Support will be provided by Boothby Graffoe.

‘So hysterically funny and at the same time so poignant and powerful that calling it stand-up barely does it justice’
