According to Arab Times, the National Council for Culture, Arts and Letters (NCCAL) announced that it will enforce strict measures against stand-up comedy shows that violate licensing regulations and public morals.
I’m guessing this is related to one of (or some of) the recent standup shows that took place. Did anything happen that I’m not aware of?

totally expected, im expecting the same thing to happen with concerts next…..for some reason, there is a huge resistance to simply letting go and allowing people to have more fun…..not sure why….very simply, if you dont approve of such humor……DONT GO
Have more fun? You mean have fun, there`s barely anything happening here.
I`m completely with you on the “you don`t enjoy it, don`t go” thing.
Heard from a friend that Peters did his thing as usual recently and didn’t tone down the vulgar jokes.
Also, I agree with adly. It’s a closed space and if you don’t want to hear immoral stuff, just dont go????
Thought police at it again, you can’t be anything but pg 13 in front of people when behind closed doors things are wild. The hypocrisy is unreal.
