Why Palestine Comedy Club, and not The Horse of Jenin?

This slot was meant for Alaa Shehada’s solo show, The Horse of Jenin. Alaa has been waiting for over a year but his Canadian visa remains stuck in limbo, and his Vancouver performances have now been cancelled twice. Palestine Comedy Club is going ahead in their place. Help bring Alaa here by sending your MP a personalized message. It takes two minutes.

Palestine Comedy Club is a road-movie following six Palestinian stand-up comedians from Haifa, Ramallah, Jenin, Hebron and the Golan Heights as they devise a show exploring the dark humour of Palestinian identity. With no tradition of comedy clubs and communities divided by walls and checkpoints, connecting across the divides proves enormously challenging. Despite differing travel permissions, the tour gains momentum and audiences flock in. As war erupts at home, performing in English to a conflicted British public becomes an existential mission to find joy and connection through laughter.

 

OCT 09 & 10 | 7:30PM — all tickets $20

OCT 10 | 2:00PM — This matinee performance is Pay-What-You-Choose, with proceeds donated to Gaza Soup Kitchen
