Brace yourself, KL. The guy who made you laugh as Jian-Yang in Silicon Valley and stirred up drama as Bernard Tai in Crazy Rich Asians is about to land on Malaysian soil and this time, he is bringing the jokes live.
For one night only on Nov 23, the comedian, actor and all-around funny guy Jimmy O. Yang will hit the stage at the Idea Live Arena with his “Big & Tall” world tour.
From Uber driver to Hollywood funny guy
Before the Netflix rom-com (Love Hard) and power (Interior Chinatown with Taika Waititi), Jimmy was just a dude grinding it out in LA, even driving for Uber while bombing and then killing at open mic nights.
Fast forward and he is not only a Hollywood regular but also the author of How to American: An Immigrant’s Guide to Disappointing Your Parents. Relatable much?
“He’s one of the most exciting comedy talents of our time. I’ve been a fan since Silicon Valley and have been eager to bring him to our stage ever since.
“At last, he’s finally coming to Malaysia!” CEO of LOL Asia, Rizal Kamal said.
Expect sharp, no-holds-barred comedy about immigrant parents, cultural chaos and the weird grind of chasing dreams. Jimmy’s humour is the kind that will have you laughing while also lowkey questioning your life choices in the best way.
So grab your friends, your cousin, even your auntie who loved Crazy Rich Asians.
