Janine Harouni
Two-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and ‘unstoppably entertaining’ (★★★★★ Times) Janine Harouni hits the road with This is What You Waited For, a brand-new hour of joyful, quick-witted stand-up.
Fresh off a world tour – including an Off-Broadway run in New York and a performance at the Netflix is a Joke Festival in LA – the New York native returns with a razor-sharp new show about marriage, parenting, and all the other wonderful milestones that slowly degrade your sleep and sanity.
With over 10 million views online, an Amazon Prime special, and rave reviews across the board, Harouni is one of the most electric comics working today.
Harouni is a regular on UK TV (Live at the Apollo, The Last Leg, The Russell Howard Hour, The John Bishop Show), and has opened for comics like Michael Che and Adam Rowe. She has featured in films and TV shows like Bob’s Burgers, The Franchise, Collette, Patrick Melrose, The People We Hate At The Wedding and The Batman.
