The American comic performs in the city for one night only

Famed for his big, bold, brash brand of comedy, actor and comedian Dave Chappelle returns to the UAE this month, with a stand-up show at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

With an impressive career spanning more than 30 years, his return to the UAE comes a year after the comedian released four stand-up specials on Netflix to huge success. He’s since won two television Emmy Awards and the Pollstar’s Comedy Tour of the Year Award. He’s also won a Grammy for Best Comedy Album for The Age of Spin & Deep In The Heart of Texas’ this year.

As well as his stand-up comedy, Chapelle has also made a name for himself in Hollywood as an actor, appearing in hits such as Robin Hood: Men in Tights, The Nutty Professor, and the recently-released blockbuster remake of A Star is Born. Nov 20
