About Mina
What do you get if you put together a trapeze artiste, a Broadway dancer, an award-winning comedian and MC, and a performing arts professor? Mina Liccione! Mina is the grand dame of comedy in the UAE. She brought her larger-than-life personality and incredible talents and experience gained as a professional performer and educator in America to Dubai in 2007 with one aim – to get the Middle East laughing, and she has never looked back. Through co-founding Dubomedy Arts School with Ali Al Sayed in 2008, she has inspired thousands of people to take up comedy. She has also taken comedy to new audiences around the region. As a comedian and MC, Mina captivates audiences with her boundless energy and infectious enthusiasm. A life-long performer, she has made numerous television and film appearances and can regularly be seen on Comedy Central Arabia.
