Arabites http://arabites.com A Multinational Sketch Comedy Show About Life In The Arab World Tue, 23 Aug 2011 08:27:18 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 Thank You For Subscribing to the Arabites http://arabites.com/57/thank-you-for-subscribing-to-the-arabites/ http://arabites.com/57/thank-you-for-subscribing-to-the-arabites/#comments Sun, 14 Aug 2011 09:01:07 +0000 Muneer http://arabites.com/?p=57 OK if you are visiting this page after you have received an email that means that you have joined our mailing list and we want to say thank you or you may be visiting because the humous you have ordered had overly sized carrots in it in which case we will tell the chef.

If you are visiting this page just because you found it on the Arabites website…

well then whatever I am saying is not really going to make any sense – why dont you subscribe to our emails and then you can come and land on here and get all the jokes. (we dont want you to feel left out!)

Anyhow thank you for subscribing – bear with us, while we get all our comedy online – at the Arabites we want to create something that will help us move away from stereotypes and generalizations, but us Arabs procrastinate so this may take some time!

But here are a quick couple of videos as a thank you for joining our mailing list:

About us:

The first trailer we ever did:

Instead of boring you with what I am trying to say check this video out which should explain what I mean:

Luckily our whip master is a lot better looking than your typical whip master

Basically as the Arabites we have had super amazing meetings where everyone gets excited and agrees a bunch of stuff but then people have forgotten what was said in a meeting or there are delays and trying to put together so many aspects of Arabites as well as a full time job its kind of been difficult to always follow up with people or keep track of everyones tasks – enter Fatima! we have basically asked Fatima to come in and help with the organisation, tracking deadlines and following up with people to make sure things are done.

I think this is great because she isn’t afraid of the boys and noone can really refuse Fatima soooo looks like things are starting to move after formula 1 slowed us down a bit!

Expect a lot more from the Arabites team guys and our show.

P.s. looks like we are getting lots of support from some big names from accross the region – watch this space – oh and looks like we are deciding on a launch date soon for our first episode!

We wanted to explain to you why we think Arabites is going to be the next big thing and in order to do that we thought a video would be the best option!

Check out the video and comment below and let us know what you think!

This scene took place at the Bahrain’s Funniest Person Improv Show.

Who would have thought a broke group of friends who only a couple of years ago had never done comedy would rally people from all over the place under just a concept of what we are doing!

Well we have done our homework and prepared ourselves for the challanges of the internet;

we are now fully social online:-
