Comedian, actor and producer, Ahmed Ahmed and is one of the most diverse, multi-faceted talents in the entertainment industry today. Winner of the “The Richard Pryor Award” for ethic comedy at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, he exploded onto the scene when he co-founded the ‘Axis of Evil’ Comedy Tour. The comedy tour aired on Comedy Central as the first ever Middle Eastern stand-up comedy special, and wasfollowed with a record-breaking tour.
Since then, Ahmed has acted in multiple big budget Hollywood movies, co-starred in a sitcom - ‘Sullivan and Sons’, and explored the world sharing his belief that laughter is a key ingredient in breaking barriers. Most recently, Ahmed became the host for Comedy Central Asia’s comedy series – Stand Up Asia!, recorded a comedy special on Kevin Hart’s LOL Network in Just For Laughs, Montreal and has a short movie “Scapegoat” that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival2018.
Continuously on an exploration of the unique spirit of laughter, Ahmed is a pioneer in opening doors for contemporary, westernized stand-up comedy to be accepted in the Middle East. He directed an award-winning documentary, ‘Just Like Us’, documenting the experiences of international comedians on a comedy tour throughout the Middle East. The film premiered at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival and has been available on Netflix.
Now Ahmed Ahmed is launching his solo world tour, ‘Oriental Pharoah’ as he looks to expand his reach in bringinglaughter to a global audience. The show looks to offer (with hilarious effect), the point of view of an individual trying to stay true to his Middle Eastern- American roots while discovering the wonders of Asia.
