Med udgangspunkt i satirisk humor og kontroversielle klip fra DR2’s julekalender ‘Yallahrup Færgeby’ opfører Omar Marzouk et stand-up show i Libanon. Publikum er blandet, der er inviteret repræsentanter fra den religiøse og den intellektuelle klasse. Der er vestlige diplomater og lokale libanesere og på forreste række sidder Mullaherne. Showet foregår i en gammel hangar i den Hizbollah-kontrollerede del af Beirut, hvor stand-up er et helt ukendt fænomen. Omar skal tage deres ‘Stand-up mødom’, som han selv udtrykker det.
Omar i Hizbollah-zonen
Five Danish stand-up comedians fled the country in the spring of 2003. Their escape took them through 20 Danish cities, where they performed 29 shows for more than 16,000 audience members. On Saturday, April 5, Magasinet in Odense hosted the show with Carsten Bang, Lasse Rimmer, Omar Marzouk, Mikael Wulff, and Sebastian Dørset. That same evening, the show was recorded on video. A short time later, it was released. And in just a moment, you will be able to purchase it. Then you can watch it again and again and perhaps call your friends and say, "Come and watch 'Fem På Flugt' with me," and while you wait for them to arrive, you can watch it again before you all watch it together. And afterwards, you can enjoy watching it again. Or maybe just enjoy a game of Yahtzee and a good Swedish sausage stew. It's up to you, really. Anyway, buy this show. Come on. Be nice.
Fem På Flugt
The show “War, terror and other funny things” by comedian Omar Marzouk played to full houses in Denmark in the spring of 2005 and more than 15,000 people saw the 90-minute show, which was immortalized on DVD in Det Ny Teater. It's controversial and hilarious, and there are plenty of extras. Since then, Omar has performed to packed houses at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the world's biggest comedy festival. The show was received with enthusiasm by both the audience and critics from several British newspapers. This fall, Omar performed three shows at the legendary London Soho Theater and has a major feature in Time Out, the biggest guide to London's entertainment scene. Omar's satirical take on war and terror is also being heard in the US. Both News Week and the Los Angeles Times interview Omar in connection with his show.

From the circus building in Copenhagen, you can experience Jan Gintberg's 2-hour comedy show LIVE with all of Egypt's Omar Marzouk as a warm-up. In a cascade of provocative observations, jokes and heated verbiage, Jan Gintberg throws himself into the seemingly impossible project of finding a common hope for the human race. This is not a party contribution to the immigrant debate but a long white comedian's look into a world increasingly characterized by hate-filled contradictions.

This was the fourth Zulu Royal event, this time covering HRH 'Prins Joachim' second wedding to 'Prinsesse Marie Cavallier' (having divorced previous wife 'Prinsesse Alexandra' in 2005, after almost 10 years of marriage.) New comedian trio 'Brian Mørk', 'Simon Jul' and 'Omar Marzouk' hosted the live "piggyback" transmission, taking over from previous regulars 'Casper Christensen', 'Frank Hvam', 'Lasse Rimmer', 'Jan Gintberg' and 'Lars Hjortshøj', and satirically commenting on every imaginable AND unimaginable aspect of the Royal Wedding, throwing in surreal and hilarious character performances.
