Omid Djalili: Schmuck for a Night

For Tickets, click here

Award winning comedian and acclaimed actor, Omid’s credits range from Hollywood movies and television to live productions on the West End stage. He has appeared on UK and US TV, and starred in films such as the Golden Globe and Oscar nominated "Shaun the Sheep Movie", "Mr Nice", "Gladiator", "Sex And The City 2", "The Mummy", "The Infidel" and Disney’s new live-action production "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms".

Immediately after finishing the first UK leg of Schmuck for a Night in May, Omid launched straight into preparation for his leading role of Tevye in Chichester Theatre Festival’s Fiddler on the Roof, with his performance winning rave reviews last summer across the eight-week run.

On TV, Omid has been most recently seen in the BBC Four series "Going Forward" with Jo Brand, as well as making appearances in "Dickensian" for BBC1 and "Stan Lee’s Lucky Man" for SKY1.

Omid also executively produced the acclaimed documentary "We Are Many", about the global anti-war demonstrations that took place in 800 cities on February 15th 2003, to date the largest mobilisation of human beings in the history of the earth. In August 2016, he also produced an Edinburgh Fringe show called "Iraq Out & Loud", which saw almost 1500 comedians and members of the public read the entirety of the Chilcot Report for 24 hours a day, over 12 days. This memorable production was awarded the prestigious Panel Prize at Edinburgh Comedy Awards, and later TV Bomb’s Zeitgeist Award.

Known for his legendary stand-up performances, Omid is intelligent, sometimes provocative and always entertaining. His stand-up is a hugely energetic and captivating comedy masterclass.

"One of the most joyfully smart, stimulating and entertaining comedians this country has"
The Telegraph

"Belly laughs with a subtle blend of mainstream gags and subversive twinkle"
Sunday Times

"Confident, engaging, thoughtful show... did someone say National Treasure"
Metro
