His shows at the Dubai World Trade Centre on March 19th and 20th and the FLASH Forum on March 22nd and 23rd will go down as four of the most memorable nights in UAE live comedy history. 
 

Echoes of laughter filled both venues as Peters deliveredunforgettable content from his record-breaking RUSSELL PETERS NOTORIOUS WORLD TOUR. The crowds were also treated to warm ups from New York City’s DJ Spinbad and Comedian Ruben Paul.
 

Peters performance was personal. He engaged his audience directly; some wishing they had chosen seats further back, whilst showing a surprising and hilarious self-deprecation based on his own life experiences growing as an Indian/Canadian. Nobody escaped, with every nationality and background coming in for some of Peters’ notoriously pointed comedic slights. 

"Wow!! I’m really pleasantly surprised that the fans are still there and still supporting me.  You’d think they’d be bored of me by now - after all, there’s no shortage of Indians in the UAE..." Russell Peters

 

Commenting on the Abu Dhabi shows, Mira Sadek from FLASH Entertainment said “We’ve seen some fantastic musicals, theater shows, concerts and DJ nights at the FLASH Forum. This was our first foray into stand up comedy and we couldn’t be happier. Russell was simply fantastic and to be working so closely with Live Nation to bring a UAE tour to the country has been equally satisfying. He laughed the house down in both Emirates!" 

 

“We were thrilled to give 10,000 of Russell’s loyal fans the opportunity to see him live in Dubai and look forward to continuing to maximize the concert experience for artists and fans.” Tyler Mervyn Managing Director, Live Nation Middle East

Ahmed Saeed, 22 year old from Abu Dhabi described the show as “awesome”. He said “I was laughing none stop for over an hour. Only Russell can have this effect on people”

Sarah Essa said “I can’t remember the last time I laughed this much. This show was incredible”
