Review: Masters of Comedy by Toy Factory

A loving tribute to Chinese comedians and comedy in all its forms.  In our childhood, we recall many nights glassy eyed and glued to the television while wolfing down our dinners. There’s a keen sense of nostalgia associated with the act of watching television, remembered mainly as a family activity and one of the few times we truly get to kick back, relax and just … Continue reading Review: Masters of Comedy by Toy Factory

Review: Gamarjobat Asia Tour 2018 presented by LOL Events

Irreverent humour and physical comedy makes this Japanese duo’s act easy to swallow and laugh with. Mimetic comedy is becoming an increasingly rare art form in today’s day and age, so it’s always an absolute delight whenever there’s a chance to see it being performed. Last weekend, that came in the form of Japanese duo Gamarjobat, as they stopped over at the Drama Centre as … Continue reading Review: Gamarjobat Asia Tour 2018 presented by LOL Events

Review: Sharul Channa Is A Pottymouth

Sharul Channa fully embraces her title in this no holds barred, completely unfiltered performance. Sharul Channa occasionally receives a request from her father for jokes he can share at the temple. We can only hope that he’s never tried, because just about all of them would be far too inappropriate to tell there. From making light of mourners at a funeral to unflinchingly talking about … Continue reading Review: Sharul Channa Is A Pottymouth
