Ria Lina: It's Not Easy Being Yellow

Ria Lina's mom is Filipino, her dad is German and she grew up all over the place. This show charts through comedy and original songs her attempts to answer the frequently asked (or at least inferred) questions 'why do you look like that?' and 'why do you sound like that?' It's a fertile premise yielding limited results. Lina's songs are the strongest element of the set, demonstrating deft songwriting and daring wit around aspects of family ties and personal identity.
