Simon
Description: In a
time when East and West do not seem to understand each other, top stand-up
comics of Middle Eastern descent Ahmed Ahmed, Aron Kader, and Maz Jobrani take
it upon themselves to single-handedly bridge the gap with an original comedy
tour that has become one of the hottest concert tickets in the
country.
Special guest Dean Obeidallah who's a co-founder of the New York
Arab-American Comedy Festival, joins the "Axis of Evil" creators for this
sold-out, no-holds-barred event that has made headlines everywhere from CNN to
Newsweek.
Nothing is off limits. Whether it's a gay terrorist or the
difficulty of flying post-9/11 America, THE AXIS OF EVIL COMEDY TOUR blasts
stereotypes with outrageous humor.
"They are doing for Middle Easterners
what Richard Pryor did for African-Americans - carrying their culture into the
mainstream." - Newsweek
