'The comedy surprise discovery of this Fringe' **** (Advertiser, Adelaide). Jinx Yeo's hard-hitting punchlines, effortless delivery and clever material won him first runner-up at the Hong Kong International Comedy Festival, and finalist in the America Meet World Global Comedy Competition. In this stand-up comedy show, Jinx reveals his clumsy attempts to juggle Asian parental expectations with his unorthodox personal aspirations - and the real-world sitcom that ensues when he inevitably drops a few balls. Enjoy huge belly-laughs with Jinx's hilarious stories and sharp observations - from the first Singaporean comedian to bring his solo show to Edinburgh Fringe.

To celebrate his inaugural Fringe experience, we thought we'd let him tell us a bit about his favourite Asian comedians, so that you will know, now and in the future, exactly which Asian acts to keep your eyes peeled for when traversing the comedy festivals of the world...
