English Stand-Up Comedy Night featuring Tamer Kattan and special guests

17 December 2026 | 19h00

Tamer Kattan is an award-winning comic whose comedy is influenced by his unique cultural experiences. Born in Egypt and raised in Los Angeles in a home where different cultures and beliefs overlapped, he’s now carving out a life in Paris. Describing himself as ‘an outsider from the start’, he combines personal material with a sharp take on the human condition.

Tamer is a comedy heavyweight who’s been performing for nearly 20 years. He’s won the World Series of Comedy and truTV’s Comedy Knockout. He’s been named Best of Fest at Big Pine Comedy Festival and won the Portland Comedy Festival. He’s also appeared at Seth Rogen’s Hilarity for Charity alongside Todd Glass and Hannibal Buress. He’s earned many 5-star reviews performing at the Edinburgh Fringe and has collected TV and radio credits across BBC, Sky TV, Fox, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon and truTV.

Two more special guest comedians will join the line-up. Supporting acts will be announced soon. Follow English Stand-Up Comedy Club on Instagram and Facebook for updates.

About English Stand-Up Comedy Club

English Stand-Up Comedy Club brings live comedy nights to Lille, hosted by English comedian Neil Sinclair.

Every show presents a fresh and diverse line-up with the biggest names in comedy and local rising stars. You’ll have a chance to see acclaimed performers and discover up-and-coming comics rolling out original material they’ve been practising in the bathroom mirror. The line-up changes every show, with new voices, sharp jokes, and unique perspectives.

Life between languages and cultures can be exciting, bewildering, frustrating, and downright funny. Through jokes and storytelling, we get to share these experiences in a humorous light. Comedy nights give us a chance to unglue our faces from our screens and get together with stand-up fans and English speakers of all levels for laughs and a break from the routine.

Our audience is a wonderfully mixed bunch of locals, expats, students, travellers, devoted comedy fans, and complete newcomers. English may be your first, second, or third language and you’ll feel welcome!

Come to stand-up comedy night with a group of friends or show up solo. You’re invited to arrive alone and we encourage mingling before and after shows–you can always lean on the bar if you need a bit of liquid courage to warm the gills.

We value inclusivity and diversity and we’re LGBTQIA+ friendly. We welcome people of different backgrounds and levels of English.

Note about the ‘Planche apéritive à partager’ that can be purchased in addition to tickets:

They aren’t joking when they say this charcuterie platter serves 2 people for a full meal, or 4 people as an appetiser. A reservation is required, it cannot be ordered on-site. You must arrive in advance to enjoy the platter, the dining area is separate from the theatre and food is prohibited in the theatre space. Ticket must be purchased in addition to the platter. The spread and presentation are really fantastic!
