Tamer Kattan – The epitome of talent, diversity and intelligence

Recorded in front of a live audience at The Comedy Underground in Seattle Washington, this CD showcases the exceptional talent of Tamer Kattan who uses his cultural diversity to inform his unique comic views on life, society and the world today.

Muslim father, Jewish mother, an American born in Egypt – Tamer Kattan was born an outsider and that’s where he stayed. Tamer quickly became adept at being comfortable in the uncomfortable. Comedy became the weapon of this underdog enabling him to deal with challenges ranging from schoolyard bullies to an abusive father. His diverse background has given Tamer a deep understanding of the human condition as well as a wealth of material to draw from. His comedy has been described as energetic and enthusiastic with an attitude that is contagious. He is “always aware of his audience…and his comedy is varied, thoughtful and effective.”
