The Comedy Club Shut Down by the Chinese Government - Episode 18

Michael Shafar is joined by the very funny and insightful ANDY CURTAIN who has an incredible story to tell.

In 2014, while living in Shanghai, Andy established the first English-speaking comedy club in China called Kung Fu Comedy. The good news for Andy was that the club was a huge success. The bad news for Andy was that its success also attracted the ire of the Chinese Government. Andy tells us what it was like performing comedy in a country where censorship is rife and the danger he and other comedians faced.
