From the first time 'eating' with Dutch friends, to 'AZC weg ermee', Hermes hopes with his jokes, stories and anecdotes to make Dutch people look differently at other cultures, but most of all, come and have a good laugh. Because after years of searching, Hermes has found a place where he always feels welcome, and that is the beautiful Dutch theaters! Of course, you are very welcome to his performance.

"Hugely clever how he cuts through his committed, charged pieces with ironclad jokes"
About Hermes Ahmadi
Hermes Ahmadi (b. 1987) is a versatile presence on play. In 2018 he started with cabaret and soon ended up in the finals of Leeuwarder Cabaret Festival and Puck's Cabaret Talent, among others. Since then, he has toured all over the country as a cabaret performer and comedian and has collected a rich array of stories and material. With that, he competed in the 2024 Leids Cabaret Festival and made it to the finals at Cameretten! He also recently made his TV debut in a cameo on RTL's The Box.
Hermes is narrative, but also goes for the sharp and unexpected jokes, special characters and recognizable and especially bizarre topics, such as integration, climate change, flixbus, frikandells and flitsmeister.
The media about Hermes Ahmadi
"Via jokes about the Efteling and the curiosities of the Dutch language, Ahmadi sharply demonstrates the bizarre situations you end up in when you have to integrate in the Netherlands as a refugee" (de Volkskrant)
