Very Live

Karachi, Pakistan

No cliché is safe! Up to the minute sketch comedy, political commentary and satiric mirth (in English) from a trio of cut-ups: Saad Haroon (Pakistan’s reigning jester), Danish Ali (the doe-eyed, goofy sidekick) and guitarist Amin Arif. 

Rotary dinners, full concert sets, club dates…This trio of merry men break the US-Pakistani ice with their quick wit and ready for prime time take on celebrity culture, politics and up to the minute news. And really, don’t you want to be able to tweet that you’ve taken a class with the guys who teach stand up in Abu Dhabi?

“Most likely to shoot out rapid-fire gags. Least likely to run out of news material.” (The Guardian, UK)
