Ken Cheng: To All The Racists I've Blocked Before
Ken Cheng has always been a fantastic joke writer but he's now also growing in confidence on stage, making him all the better company in this show that reflects on social attitudes to ethnicity and his position as a British-born Chinese comic.
Star of BBC Radio 4's Chinese Comedian and co-host of E4's The Hangover Games, Ken Cheng is back with a complete treatise on racism. Using racism he's received from Twitter trolls as a jumping-off point, Ken explores racism in all its forms from the unique position of a British-born Chinese, ex-Cambridge mathematician dropout and professional poker player. From BBC Radio 4's The Now Show, Comedy Central at the Comedy Store and BBC Three's Top Tens. Dave Joke of the Fringe 2017 winner and one of The Guardian's Best Edinburgh Shows 2018.
