Wang In There, Baby! comes three years after the comedian’s debut for the streamer, Philly Philly Wang Wang, which put him on the map in the States. He has since appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers and chatted with David Letterman for his Netflix show.
Wang In There, Baby! is about “being British, being Asian, octopuses, America and the trappings of minor fame,” its creator has said. It was taped at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Shakespeare’s Globe in London, having been toured around the globe for the past couple of years including in the U.S. and a twice-extended 64-date tour in Wang’s home country.
In the clip, which you can watch above, Wang delivers a laugh-out-loud gag on “those people who don’t like doing ‘touristy’ things when abroad.”
Wang recently made his film debut in Wonka while TV credits include Inside Amy Schumer, Life & Beth and Taskmaster.
The comedy special is produced by Avalon. EPs are Wang, Richard Allen-Turner, Julien Matthews and Jon Thoday.
