Comedy with an Accent

Comedy with an accent - comedy with a different point of view!

Join Taiwanese comedian Kuan-wen as he finds out the amusing tales, obstacles and strategies of other non-native speakers who perform English stand up comedy on the UK circuit. We also peek into the comedians' foreign upbringings and cultures, how they approach the English language, how they switch between languages and any random anecdotes that get caught in the chitchats.
