Stand-up to the Max


Nearly 500 comedy lovers flocked to Al Areen Palace and Spa to watch stand-up comedian Max Amini perform new and classic bits from his repertoire for a night of unforgettable laughs.

The Iranian-American comedian and actor who has been active on the global stand-up circuit for the last 18 years, saw his fame skyrocket 12 years ago, when one of his bits talking about the behavioural nuances of Middle-Eastern mothers titled Tomato Juice went viral.

During the show, the 38-year-old performed the routine again to a crowd going berserk with laughter, as a sea of phones recorded the moment.

During a post-show interview with GulfWeekly, Max said: “It was very interesting re-performing that bit. First off, I felt great because even though they knew the bit, the audience was thoroughly enjoying it. It feels great knowing that people remember and love that to this day. It also inspires you as an artist to keep creating and write material that really resonates with people.”
