An Indian, a Jew and an Indian Jew walk onto a stage. Sounds like a set-up for a joke, doesn't it? Well, it's no joke, but it does set up a very funny evening of cross-cultural comedy. Abhay Nadkarni (an Indian Hindu), Joe Nguyen (a Vietnamese Jew) and Samson Koletkar (an Indian Jew) bring their hilarity and their disparity to the stage.
Indian Jewish comedian Samson Koletkar launched The Mahatma Moses Comedy Tour back in 2010. After 17 shows in 10 cities, he launched several others shows and comedy festivals, most notably "Desi Comedy Fest" the biggest South Asian comedy festival in America & "Comedy Oakland" 2016-2022 Best Comedy Night Winner in East Bay Express Reader's Poll.
After a decade of hosting the weekly Oakland shows and the annual Desi Comedy Fest, he decided it was time to re-focus on what he loved most - entertaining his audience with longer performances satirizing religion, superstition, & sarcastic observations.
Joe Nguyen's path to comedy began in the state of Georgia where he was born to a Vietnamese immigrant and a Caucasian Jew from the Dominican Republic. He has won the Russian River Resort Comedy Competition and has also toured with Samson on You're Funny But You Don't Look Jewish show in 42 cities across USA & Canada.
Abhay Nadkarni moved from South India to South Central Los Angeles, via the Middle East, to pursue grad school. A gifted voice artist, he's appeared on NBC, CBS, "America from Abroad" with Rob Delaney and been featured in the Huffington Post.
Don't be fooled by their complicated last names. This team of talented performers has an uncomplicated approach to comedy that covers every relevant topic you can think of - race, religion, food, philosophy, and more. Put on your thinking caps and enjoy the clean, smart, highbrow comedy of the Mahatma Moses Comedy Tour.
