About the Show

A British comedian reflects on his time visiting Afhganistan.

In 2002, UK comedian Henry Naylor went to the Afghan War zone with photographer Sam Maynard to conduct research for Naylor’s Edinburgh Fringe play “Finding Bin Laden.” They were threatened, held captive by the Mujhadeen, and almost killed by the Taliban. Now, as the Taliban assume power, Naylor is forced to ask: what has been lost in the ruins of Kabul?

Critic Reviews (1)

‘Henry Nayler’s one-actor show has won more awards than many shows have had performances, and Nayler himself has won at Edinburgh 3 times. And they were well-deserved, every one of them.’ [Naylor is] ‘a very fine raconteur. He deftly moves from one character to another, and his comedic and dramatic senses of timing are excellent. Put simply, I wish the performance had been longer.’
