Unsold tickets will be available at the theatre box office one hour before the start of the performance. Thanks for understanding.

"Smooth Life is an interesting personal peep into somebody's life – life so different from our European experience, yet full of love, hope and expectations. Husam creates an atmosphere for all senses; therefore his solo is so impressive you want to participate even more".
