crowd pleaser

RAMI NAMA

Rami Started doing Stand-up comedy in 2017. Mixing the dark with the weird and lacing it all with clever punchlines and brought in a hilariously dry tone. Rami won’t convince you of anything. His method is subtle and will desoriëntate you in a unusual way. Rami won the Griffioen comedy festival Amsterdam in 2021.
Awards: Griffioen comedy festival Amsterdam '21'22

And go straight to, well, benefits.It’s the benefits I am interested in more than in friends. I have a sufficient amount of friends, at least according to my Facebook page
