| | Top Filipino comedians to wow Doha fans on Feb 17 |  DOHA FILIPINO stand-up comedians Kim Idol and Ate Gay are set to be part of an entertaining post-Valentine show in Doha on February 17.
The event titled 'Lolz! My Funniest Valentines with Ate Gay and Kim Idol, Live in Qatar!' will be staged in two sessions — 4pm and 8pm — at the Sheraton Hotel's Al Majlis ballroom.
It is being organised by newly-formed event management firm Fresh Events and Productions. The artistes to feature in the show are renowned in the Philippines for their distinct humour and singing prowess.
The performers not only entertain home audiences with their rib-tickling humour but also frequently entertain overseas Filipino expatriates at concerts.
This will be the second such event for Kim Idol in Qatar. His debut in Doha, previously with comedian K Brosas, was a success.
However, the forthcoming post-Valentine show will be Ate Gay's first event in the country. The comedian rose to fame for his wacky impersonation of popular Filipina actress Nora Aunor.
