Julius Agwu Takes Crack Ya Ribs to New York & Glasgow


Popular Nigerian stand-up comedian, Julius ‘D Genius’ Agwu will be performing live alongside other Nigerian ace comedians in New York, Glasgow and London as he will be taking the most popular comedy brand from his stable to these three cities. The concert will feature grand performances from both Nigerian and Ghanaian artistes.


The Crack Ya Ribs brand from the stable of Reel Laif entertainment headed by Julius Agwu, producers of Life for Christ’s sake and Comedy Train started in 1994 and has gained lots of popularity in Nigeria and London for over a decade.

The comedian and his team who have been hosting the Crack Ya Ribs Comedy Show annually in London have decided to take the show to other cities. And for the first time, the show will hold in New York and Glasgow.

The London show will hold on 26 August, 2012 at the Light House Hall, 262-274 Camberwell Road, SE5 ODL, which happens to be the same venue where Laff for Christ’s sake show held in April 2012. Artistes and comedians billed to perform at the London show include MI, D’Prince, Seyi Law, Dj Abass, FunnyBone, Senator, MC Shakara and Funny Face from Ghana. Top Ghanaian acts like VIP, Guru and Khaki will also be performing at the event.

In a similar vein, the New York and Glasgow shows will hold on 1 September, 2012 at the Simphony Space Theater, 2537 Broadway, NY 10025 and 24 August,2012 at O2 ABC 2 Glasgow respectively.

Speaking concerning this year’s event, Julius said ‘this year will mark 12 years of Crack Ya Ribs and we needed to repackage it to inject some fresh ideas to keep the brand going. We are now trying to make it bigger by turning it to a Pan-African event. So we are doing this edition with Media Ghana and Empire Entertainment from Ghana. They are the organizers of Ghana Meets Naija music concert in Ghana and they are my Ghana partners for this year’s concert’.
