Dubai theatre and comedy — plays and live shows

Dubai’s stage programme includes plays, comedy and productions that use music or visual performance. A large show at The Agenda can be a different evening from a smaller theatre production. Start with the work or performer that interests you rather than choosing by the building alone.

For spoken shows, check the performance language and any subtitles or surtitles on the individual listing. An immersive art event in a theatre building is also different from a staged play. Browse the dated cards and relevant places below, then join Gitch to find company for the production you choose.
