This must-see event for theatre enthusiasts and lovers of creative expression offers a unique experience in Dubai’s theatre scene. Described as a “cardboard comedy,” the play revolves around a man in a three-piece suit fishing in the plains of the Great North when an accidental encounter with a mermaid changes his destiny. He embarks on an enigmatic and crazy journey narrated entirely with cardboard artistry.
Originally created by top French comedians Pierre Guillois and Olivier Martin-Salvan, the 2022 Moliere Award-winning show was a smash hit at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2023, where it received glowing 5-star reviews and played to sold-out audiences.
“The Ice Hole – A Cardboard Comedy” is now brought to life in Dubai by popular comedians and actors Sadiq Saboowala and Patrick Albrecht, two-time winners of the local Short + Sweet Dubai Theatre Festival.
