Brendan Goh: Gay First, Chinese Second – A Comedy Show
HYMN Bar
Brendan Goh: Gay First, Chinese Second is a stand-up comedy show exploring sexuality, cultural identity, migration and the complications of modern dating.
Brendan is gay, Chinese Malaysian and living in Australia. Moving countries to live openly as a gay man seemed like a straightforward solution. Unfortunately, life and love have proven considerably more complicated.
Through outrageous personal stories and sharp observations, Brendan shares his experiences of growing up gay in Malaysia, navigating cultural expectations and searching for love in Australia.
His requirements for a partner are simple. They must be alive, know the difference between light and dark soy sauce, and preferably not wear an ankle monitor.
Presented as part of Adelaide's Feast Festival, this hour of comedy combines personal storytelling, cultural observations and unapologetic humour.
Expect an entertaining exploration of identity, relationships and belonging from a comedian who freely admits he is unnecessarily complicated.
The show is interracial, gay, funny and hetero-friendly. Suitable for adults aged 18 and over.
