VietNamNet Bridge – Two comedians from Canada and the UK – Ron Josol and David Alfie Ward – will perform at Game On Saigon, 115 Ho Tung Mau Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City on June 28 and Standing Bar, 170 Tran Vu Street, Hanoi on June 29.
Some comedians are made for performing in Southeast Asia, and Ron Josol is one of them. A Filipino-Canadian who has been plying the North American comedy circuit for 20 years, he’s one of those comics who’s come to Southeast Asia, made people fall off their seats in laughter, and then come back again… and again, and again.
This, though, will be his first time performing in Vietnam. And what a show it will be.
Naturally, Ron won’t be here on his own, and holding his hand (not officially, of course), will be London born and bred comedian, David Alfie Ward.
An observational comic who’s toured the US and Australia and returned to his home in Walthamstow, East London with rave reviews, this will also be Ward’s first time venturing into the Vietnamese jungle. Having braved places like the Comedy Store in Sydney and appeared on the TV channel, Comedy Central, he comes prepared. Prepared, that is, to make you laugh.
Entrance fee: VND200,000 in advance and VND250,000 on the door.
