The festival will also provide a variety of other humour based events which include the following:
Open Mic Anyone can go up on stage and try out performing comedy in front of a real crowd. The session will be moderated by Naveed Mahbub. There will also be an open mic for ladies and children. Prior registration by emailing Info@NaveedMahbub.com.
Roasting session
There will be a Roasting Session where comedians will field questions, comments and yes, even heckling from the audience, all with their wits.
Joke Bucket Challenge There will be a Joke Bucket Challenge where the audience members write down topics and put into a bucket from which comedians draw the topics on stage and perform comedy based on those topics. The audience cheers on the ones doing well, and boos down those who fumble.
Tickets for the festival are available at Bitter Sweet Cafe (Gulshan), Tastebud (Banani) and online at etunes.com.bd. More information at www.Facebook.com/NaveedsComedyClub, 01755618541.
