If your social calendar needs upgrading, consider this your official excuse. The Laughter Factory is back this April with a heavyweight bill led by South African comedy superstar Robby Collins. Fresh from winning multiple Comics Choice Awards – including Comedian of the Year – Collins arrives in the UAE armed with the razor-sharp storytelling and laid-back swagger that have made him one of Africa’s most in-demand comics. His Netflix special, Only Jokes Allowed, introduced global audiences to his fearless, observational style, while tours alongside Dave Chappelle and Trevor Noah cemented his status as a world-class act. Expect big laughs, big personality and zero filter. Joining him is Fresh, fearless, and funny, Valentina Danubio, turning everyday chaos into comedy gold. From motherhood and post-baby body battles to the quirks of Dubai life and job hunting, she mines her real-world experiences with razor-sharp wit—and a side of music. Also making his Laughter Factory debut will be Northern English funnyman John Hague, bringing grounded, relatable chaos and high-energy punchlines that hit close to home. Rounding out the bill is poet and storyteller, Viswajit Dilip, weaving humor into his words to create engaging narratives. As always, The Laughter Factory delivers more than just stand-up. Stick around after the final encore for the club’s signature after-party vibe, where comics and crowd mingle and the laughs continue long after the curtain call. With six shows across Dubai and Abu Dhabi this is your chance to catch world class, international comedy in an intimate setting.
