Dubai Comedians hit new milestones: The Road to Athens and Edinburgh
Dubomedy, co-founded by well achieved entertainers Ali Al Sayed and Mina Liccione, have been the driving force behind the development of the local comedy scene in Dubai. Liccione hails from New York as Al Sayed is from Dubai. They represent the ‘East meets West’ world of the UAE and use comedy as a tool to bridge cultural gaps and bring people of diverse cultures, religions, finances together. Their shared passion for performing comedy and building a local comedy community quickly united them upon meeting.
They have been busy over the last four years building a local comedy scene in the UAE. Their goal was to one day be able to export local talent rather than importing it. They are proud to say that they have been doing just that and this summer they will hit more milestones.
Dubai Laughing and Dubomedy have collaborated in creating the first UAE produced Comedy Show to be part of the legendary Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The stand up comedy show is entitled “Big In Dubai” and will feature Ray Addison and Jamie Johnson, Host Mina Liccione and headlining act; Ali Al Sayed. In other words, two Brits, an Arab and a Yank!
Prior to their departure they will hold a send off show here in Dubai on July 4, 2012 at The Address Hotel in Dubai Marina Mall. Doors open at 7:30pm in the Constellation Ballroom. The show is rightfully named, “The Road to Edinburgh.” They have invited Omar Ismail to host this event. All proceeds from ticket sales will support the Edinburgh tour.
