The Bazaar Presents: Arabian Nights Live!

13th February
The Little Theatre, Dover Street, Leicester, LE1 6PW
Book now

A comedy cabaret of Middle Eastern delights!

A bold, high-energy interactive variety show unlike anything else at the festival—where ancient epics collide with the beautifully chaotic reality of diaspora life. Brought to you by Europe’s first all-SWANA comedy improv troupe (South West Asian and North African).

Arabian Nights Live is part improv show, part music gig, part unruly family gathering. Blending hilarious scenes, original songs, and live instrumentation—with no shortage of satire—it reimagines the rebellious spirit of the 1001 Nights tales through a modern lens.
Caution: There may be camels.

Smart, silly, and refreshingly unfiltered, the show blends slick improvisation, musicality, and joyful subversion to celebrate SWANA identity in all its complexity.

A night of myth, music, and mischief.
