Comedian Ronny Chieng has had a busy couple of years. After his 2019 Netflix special (Ronny Chieng: Asian Comedian Destroys America!) went gangbusters, the performer has dived into Hollywood and scored a number of roles in films like Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Crazy Rich Asians and Godzilla vs. Kong. Not to mention his regular appearances on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
But it looks like Ronny hasn’t forgotten about his humble beginnings back in Australia where he honed his comic stylings on the Melbourne stand-up circuit while he was a student, before landing his first big break as a Raw Comedy Award finalist during the 2010 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Somehow Chieng is also finding the time to come back to Australia, bringing his new show, Ronny Chieng: Hope You Get Rich, to east coast cities this autumn. The tour has already travelled America where it played to sold out audiences, and marks Chieng's first time performing live in Australia since 2019.
Ronny Chieng: Hope You Get Rich is showing in Melbourne at the Palais Theatre for one night only on March 26. Tickets are available now.
