When your native home no longer feels like a safe place for you to live and be yourself there, then it’s understandable why comedian Sam See a native of Singapore created his latest comedy show called And I Can’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore about his thoughts and feelings about leaving to pursue his comedy career abroad.
Previous shows by Sam See have been focused on his sexuality and growing up in Singapore where until two years ago it had been illegal. He felt pushed out and wasn’t going to hide who he was at risk of being arrested and who could blame him, so he decided to hit the international comedy stage.
Sam See offers an informative and energetic show. Explaining how the immigration process works and all the forms he has faced filling in the name of comedy and seeking to make a home in the United Kingdom. However, some of the questions on those forms should have their own comedy set!
And I Can’t Feel at Home in this World Anymore is billed as a part-comedy and part-storytelling show. See explains to the audience that if “you’re not laughing then that’s the storytelling part” it’s up to the audience to decide which parts of the show fall into the comedy section! It will be a different show for everyone.
With everything that the Edinburgh Fringe has to offer it is hardly surprising that Sam See feels like he has found his tribe and can “feel at home” amongst all the other talented comedians during August. If he returns to Edinburgh Fringe next year then I highly recommend fitting the show into your timetable.
The Fringe has a way of accepting everyone who feels slightly on the cusp of life and the range of comedy across the festival has something for everyone’s taste.
