Kuan-wen is one of the few Taiwanese comedians who performs English stand-up comedy in the UK (if not the only one as of 2023). Born and raised in Taiwan, he traded his beloved island for the rainy British isles after completing mandatory military service. He meant to write a show about the shifting identities and what it means. to be Taiwanese - his home island has a rich history of migration - but Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 shook the world and shifted the focus of this show.
