The event, titled Bahrain Comedy, was set up and organized by SJ Media on the 2nd & 3rd of October 2008; the Axis of Evil wasn't the only special part of the show, however. The act also introduced local talent; five comedians from Bahrain, unknown to most, but who had the crowd on their knees in laughter! Take a look at the photos from the show:
DJ Imran & Wadah practicing the day before the show
Salah Janahi, Abbas Kassem & Maz Jobrani checking everything before the show
DJ Outlaw warming up as the doors open..
And the crowds start to rush in!
And start filling out the seats...
The hall was so busy there were even a few kangaroos in the crowd...
Everybody settles in as the show is about to start....
AND it's on! DJ Imran surprises everyone with a perfect imitation of his Bahraani/Pakistani relatives and has people crying out in laughter!
It doesn't take long for people to start getting aggressive against him!
And our local acts hit the stage! Five local talents bringing the finest comedy to the crowds!
Each of the comedians made the crowds roar in their own way! And next comes... from the Axis of Evil... AHMAD AHMAAAAAD!!!
..with an amazing performance that had people cracking up and holding their stomachs... And after almost two hours of pure laughter came the one & only...
Maz JOBRAAANIIII!!! Persian, like the caaaaaaat!
So funny he almost ate the mic! The show lasted a good three hours and hardly gave people a chance to breathe! Roars of laughter and comedy, and the grand finale as the comedians took to the stage to welcome and thank everyone:
Overall, an amazing show that EVERYONE enjoyed, and definitely one to remember! Hopefully this should be the first of many more to come; stay tuned to Bahrain-Talent for info on future comedy shows on the island, and for upcoming features on our very own local brand of comedians!

Guy Congrats on a great show especially the local talent was very interesting to find out the that Bahrain had great talented Comedians that were up to the international standard.
Big shout out to Mazz Jobrani, Ahmed Ahmed, Wadah Swar, DJ Omran & All the Organizers for a great show!
Hope to see the next show!
It was a long wait but thanx for finally bringing Axis of Evil to our humble country :)
Maz Jobrani as always BEST of the BEST, well can't blame him actually coz u know...he's persian, like the cat ;)
We had great local comedians but Waddah Swar was a unique star, i think you should have your own show. Vey funny, naturally talented.
Keep up the good work everyone!
WOW Waddah Swar...never new we had talented Bahraini's here...
Really proud to be from the same country :)
Yousif Taha really nice great comedian...one of the best
IT WAS THE BEST SHOW EVER !
love Maz jobrani !!
im persian meooow
And the Bahraini Comedians were really funny, keep up the good work every single one of u !
A big thanx to the organizer !! thank you for that and for the laughter !!
i couldn't stop laughing for 3 hrs !
bee i realy missed the show ha
i realy wanted to see you Waddah Swar
im sure you were the best :D
Best live show in bahrain so far, i enjoyed it to death, And waddah nice going bro keep it up.
Honest opinion and no BS??
Well the show was great. Salah and Abbas pulled off a great entertainer for the country and moreover the crowd was very cool. No weirdos at all!!!
Of course and Maz and Ahmed were brilliant although I had an equally great time watching the Pakistani guy. He really had us in splits.
The Saudi due with glasses was also a killer.
The only guy who needs to work on his act cuz he was seriously not funny is Waddah!!!
He was funny maybe in a day to day conversation basis but not funny for stand up comedy material. In case you guys didnt notice, the only person laughing at all his jokes most of the time was he himself!!!
The guy just did'nt have enough funny material in his story! Plain and Simple!
He has the voice of a comedian, the expressions of a comedian yet the punch line or lead up to the punch line simply wasnt there!!!
Sorry Waddah, i think you need to work a little bit harder to get up on stage. Otherwise your simply just spoiling the show!
Yousif Taha was really really talented. and Rahman tha Pakisani guy. I think other than Maz those 2 were the best
Great show guys. 2 ppl wern't that great in the show and i think they ruined it. Waddah might be funny as a person but he wasn't made to stand on stage. and Baraa also maybe coz he was nervous. other than that the rest were great
The show was at the top of magnificence, and we await with impatience the next presentation
i thint that waddah was born on a stage & he is very different special talent and has great presence
And supposed to change the world talent to Waddah cz he is a talent &
Without multiple tastes of Bart goods
s.alkhalasi
is it on youtube?
you can find some clips on youtube! search for bahrain comedy
What was waddah swar doing on stage!!..the guy is not a comedian I'm sorry...and what is sad is that he is going to be opening up for Omid Djalili!!..I am sure that will be great!!
