Description

Transgressive, irreverent, yet adorable and heartfelt, with a touch of political satire. Rice (WIP) is a comedy about growing up in China and fighting repression with food. 'Charm personified, definitely one to watch' ***** (Morning Star). 'What he has is potent in its imagery, authenticity, perverse logic, and volatility' (Comedy.co.uk). Alvin was made in China, schooled by the English and influenced by Tupac. In 2022 he moved to London to pursue his dream of being a funny expat, sharing his ridiculous views on cultures and countries. 'We can all find happiness with a bowl of rice' (Confucius).
