What do you say to people who ask you to tell them a joke when you mention you are a comedian?
Usually, I don’t but if someone insists I would ask them about their profession and try saying something funny. For instance if someone said that he is bank branch manager, I’ll ask him please give me loan right now.
If you weren't a comedian, what would you be?
An alien who sells street coffee in Amman.
Do you think people from your country are the funniest in the world? Why?
Of course they are the funniest that’s why it’s really hard to make them laugh.
What drove you to make it as a stand-up?
In Arabic culture it’s called “naseeb”.
Who are your comedic heroes?
George Carlin.
What are your hopes for Saturday's show?
I hope to make the audience have a great time.
Why should people come?
To see how different I look after the pandemic.
Tickets are available on bookmyshow.com and platinumlist.net and start at Dh95.
