Come socialise or business network in beer gardens around Melbourne.
We plan to have regular meet ups around various different types of venues, beer gardens, wineries and any relaxed licensed venue with a good atmosphere. These meet ups will be held in various towns/suburbs in Greater Melbourne. Any suggestions are always welcome.
Then about 8.30 we can either walk or catch a tram to see Akmal at Athaneum Theatre 2 which starts at 9pm.
Akmal returns to Melbourne International Comedy Festival sharing stories and thoughts about people who affected his life.
Like his uncle, who pretended to be a doctor for many years by skipping medical school and simply buying a stethoscope and a white coat.
Or his Coptic priest (who he confessed all his sins to) who was also the local exorcist. Ironically, he was found to have several demons inside him.
Or his millionaire uncle who, when visiting the Salehs, gave himself an enema using the family garden hose (we never drank out of that hose again).
In My Family and Other Criminals you will meet these lovable but crazy characters and much more! 'Akmal’s comedic prowess shines brightly throughout the show. It will leave you both entertained and enlightened, with a newfound appreciation for the absurdities of life.' ArtsHub 'His playful banter had everyone in stitches, and his ability to circle back to earlier jokes with perfectly timed callbacks showcased his impressive comedic agility.' Fringefeed
Here is a link to buy tickets which are $49 plus booking fee. PLEASE BUY TICKETS ASAP AS THERE ARE ONLY 50 TICKETS PER SHOW.
So Imperial Hotel very close to Parliament Station for dinner and Atheneum Theatre 2 very close to Town Hall Station if just coming to Akmal. Likely to be plenty of parking around the general area on Good Friday too.
