Hasan Al Habib: Death to the West (Midlands)

Wed 12 Feb 25 60 minutes
Arab. Muslim. Brummy. Hasan Al-Habib was born to Iraqis that moved to Birmingham after deciding Baghdad wasn’t dangerous enough.
‘Al-Habib will be famous’
Rolling Stone

This award-winning comedian’s show is about his love for both cities – despite being hated by the US Government / Leicester.

An exploration of racism, sectarianism, and a high metabolism, this is the show that Tommy Robinson, Saddam Hussein, and Joe Wicks DON’T WANT you to see. You’re not gonna listen to them, are ya, bab?!

Birmingham Comedy Festival Breaking Talent Award 2023 | Winner


The artist will donate 50% of their proceeds to MAP (Medical Aid for Palestinians).
