Dalin Oliver - Stuck in Dubai

South African comedian Dalin Oliver is back on home soil and brings his brand-new

stand-up comedy show, Stuck in Dubai, to East London at Legends Showcase Venue on

31 October - a wild, true story born from an experience no traveller wants.

En route to perform at Adelaide Fringe, Dalin was in transit when conflict broke out in the

region, leaving him stuck in Dubai for four days. What followed was a surreal mix of

uncertainty, humour and viral fame. His social media updates gained traction and Dalin

unexpectedly became the “official, unofficial international news correspondent for

South Africa,” earning both local and international media coverage.

In classic South African style, he transformed a traumatic moment into comedy gold,

finding laughter, love and lekkerness in his posts, receiving the same in return from his

fellow South Africans at home and abroad. It’s a miracle that he made his connecting

flight to perform at the world’s second biggest arts festival, eventually landing in Australia

just a few hours before showtime.

Fresh from surviving the wildest layover, and witnessing live missiles, he’s bringing chaos

and adrenaline-fuelled storytelling in a show that promises to be packed with explosive

laughter. See you at the show
