Award-winning comedian, professional poker player and LinkedIn business guru, Ken Cheng is heading back out on tour! He brings you his new show, The Big Brain Show for People with 3,000 IQ, where he lifts the lid on being silenced and cancelled by the comedy industry for having such a big brain. Expect lots of maths, graphs, tests of mental agility and Ken talking about his really niche special interests for a couple of hours. This promises to be the stupidest "clever" show imaginable.

You may have heard Ken on his BBC Radio 4 series Chinese Comedian, for which he won a BBC Audio Drama Award in 2023 for Best Comedy, and I Can School You, where he fixed the education system. Now, watch him live as goes one step further and fixes all of the world's problems with his megamind-like intelligence.
