Allah Made Me Funny

March 30th, 2009Lauren (Guest)

Allah Made me FunnyAllah Made Me Funny, the world’s funniest Muslim comedy show is back in town for a one off performance at London’s Hammersmith Apollo. The stand up comedy show consists of three of the America’s funniest comedian’s who will deliver one night of hilarious new material on topics such as being a muslim in America, politics, weddings and many more funny insights into growing up as a modern Muslim in today’s world.

The three comedians who form the ‘Allah Made Me Funny’ show are all well respected performers across America and now aim to bring down some social barriers in the UK. The Apollo show is aimed at all cultures and comedy fans, it’s a must see show for those that have missed the previous sell out tours.

Mo Amer, is known to many as the World’s Funniest Palestinian! – Mo has recently toured Iraq performing to the US troops and performed in many countries around the world including the Middle East. He is still classed as a refugee (travels with refugee passport) by the American government and is now seen by many as one of America’s bright comedy hopefuls for the future. He himself hopes to one day perform back in his family homeland roots of Palestine.

Preacher Moss, an Afro American Muslim convert has toured extensively across the USA and Europe for many yrs talks about many issues including being black and fitting into an Asian Muslim family.

Azhar Usman, better known to his friends as the lawyer has performed extensively over the States, Europe and also in India. His brand of humour and appearance will make you smile instantly as he describes his upbringing and how his looks often lead to ridiculous judgments by others.
