Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 13th June 2023Phil Wang: Wang in There, Baby! review
While the British Malaysian performer may not be delivering anything too interesting, unique or poignant, he knows his role in the circuit and delivers whimsical observations on British culture in a very gentle, albeit predictable way.
Cameron Wright, Narc Magazine, 24th May 2023Phil Wang review - smut and smarts
While some of material is ho-hum, it's a nicely curated set of gags with a few unexpected payoffs - and Wang is very pleasant company for 75 minutes.

An entertaining evening but I was Wanging in there for something more.

Wang creates a kind of universality in the frustrations that he voices.
Sascha Cooper, Broadway Baby, 22nd May 2023Phil Wang: Wang in There, Baby! review
In today's world of cancel culture, perhaps food is the safest topic for comedy. Let's hope that this isn't the case for the future. Wang suggests that it's unlikely that he will be cancelled but he also remarks that he is famous enough to make sure that he behaves himself in public. Touch wood that he doesn't behave himself too much.
