Comedy at Canvas with KUMAR

15 – 29 MAR 2016 | Kumar is undoubtedly one of the country’s leading comic and drag queen who’s been making a name for himself since the early nineties. Believe it or not, he’s spent 20 years in the entertainment industry – conquering television, film and the stage – and is primarily known for keeping locals humored at the now defunct Boom Boom Room.

After several years of cracking relentless jokes, performing lip-synching sets, doing traditional Indian dance, and getting jiggy with hunky go-go boys, we still haven’t had enough of Kumar. Besides this local legend’s entertainment talents, he is also admired for his bravery to speak up for queer issues and those pertaining controversial local politics.

Not forgetting his love for poking fun at all things taboo in Singapore, Kumar never fails to humour us with his quirky racial and sexual observations… And the best part is, he always manages to get away with his comments from local authorities. You might disagree with us, but we believe that Kumar will always be a prominent voice for all Singaporeans regardless of race, gender and sexual orientation.

Comedy at Canvas with KUMAR is happening on 15 March, 22 March, and 29 March 2016 at CANVAS from 9pm to 11.15pm. Tickets are priced at $25 (Priority Entry, Standing, includes 1 standard drink), $38 (Seating, includes 1 standard drink), $30 (Door, Standing, includes 1 standard drink).
