Hot off the heels of his critically acclaimed Netflix special, Phil's bringing his highly infective British-Malaysian variant of comedy to the Edinburgh Fringe once more. Phil's last show in Edinburgh was in 2019, so immunity to his charm has faded significantly. Thank goodness he's back with a new hour of absolute gold about race, family and everything that's been going on in his Philly little life. Your doctor called - you're due your next dose of Wang. 'Stand-up dreamland' **** (Guardian). 'A unique and properly funny stand-up' **** (Times).
