Death to the West (Midlands)

Arab. Muslim. Brummy.

“Deliciously funny” (Guardian) Hasan Al-Habib’s parents left Baghdad for the land of opportunity (southern Birmingham). But when Britain invaded Iraq, friends and teachers saw him as the enemy within.

This story involves Big Tescos, why Saddam Hussein would have loved Drayton Manor, and – amidst a search for those pesky weapons of mass destruction – finding Self-acceptance.

“Al-Habib treats his audience to some seamless callbacks, crowd-winning call and responses, and impeccable timing.” ★★★★ The Skinny

“Infectiously effusive, Al-Habib revels in that rollercoaster tone, swooping from fascinating insights to well-timed gags, crowd-pleasing chant-alongs and a good dose of the mischievously provocative.” ★★★★ Fest Mag

“There’s material here for Live at the Apollo.” ★★★★ Scotsman
