SAFM and "Before the Games" Lehmo has just spent Christmas in Baghdad performing to the troops. Lehmo shares stories of his experiences and time with the troops at his 2006 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Show.

"Christmas in Baghdad" is about recent trip to the middle east to entertain the troops. Baghdad is not everybody's idea of a relaxing Christmas location but Lehmo loved it. Hear tales of flying in black hawks over Baghdad at midnight, explosions at midday and afternoon gunfire. Hear inside stories of the fall of Baghdad, escaped zoo animals and the trashing of the cradle of civilisation.... Not to mention Burger King in Baghdad, Maccas in Kuwait, Subway in Basra and shopping in Dubai. The troops laughed and so will you as Lehmo takes you on his journey through the middle east.

Review:
"With serious questions being asked of the motivations behind the war in Iraq, Lehmo's show is not only timely, but also insightful, political and hysterical."
Liz Walsh, The Advertiser, Thursday March 2 2006
