Who Is Simon Brodkin?
Brodkin is a London-born comedian who studied medicine at the University of Manchester and worked as a doctor before moving into comedy full time in 2007.
He became widely known for his character Lee Nelson, who fronted the BBC Three series Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show from 2010. His other characters include the footballer Jason Bent.
He has also appeared on Live at the Apollo and is known internationally for his high-profile public pranks.
His recent tour, Screwed Up, was extended three times and ran to 170 dates, including three sold-out nights at the Hammersmith Apollo in London, according to event organisers.
How Does This Show Compare With His Earlier Dubai Visit?
Brodkin previously performed in Dubai at Theatre by QE2 on Friday, 31 January 2025. That show started at 9.30pm and carried a 16+ age policy.
This time he moves to New Covent Garden Theatre inside Mall of the Emirates in Al Barsha, a central venue with direct public transport links.
Getting to New Covent Garden Theatre
Mall of the Emirates has its own station on the Dubai Metro Red Line and a smart bus station, making public transport a practical option for a Friday evening show.
