As seen on Conan, Leno, and his own Netflix special “Dwayne Perkins: Take Note”, Dwayne Perkins will be taking to the stage of the Comedy Club Bangkok on Friday, Jun 24 at 8pm—preceded by some of Bangkok’s own homegrown talent. Tickets are available here. 

 

Playing tomorrow in Phuket and with a show in Chiang Mai on the 25th and Hua Hin on Jun 26, Dwayne Perkins speaks to BK Magazine ahead of the Thailand leg of his tour.

 

 

I had a blast last time I was in Bangkok. The crowds were attentive and laughed a lot. That's the combination every comic prays for. So I'm expecting that. Hopefully everyone will be ready to have fun after the world being closed for two years. I know I am.

 

 

Anywhere where the crowd consists of all comics. That quickly becomes a judgmental workshop.  

 

 

Great question. Yes and no. If I venture into a sensitive topic it can be very hard and nowadays more and more things are touchy subjects. But if you speak from the heart and don't punch down, things usually work out. The key is to not let the outliers spoil the fun. Although, an outlier with a few drinks in them can bring any show to a screeching halt. But usually things go well. 

 

 

So many people. But meeting George Carlin and working on a show with him was definitely surreal. I'd say it was a dream come true but I never even dreamed that could happen.  

 

 

Most definitely. And also to maybe secure some lodging in Thailand in case the next attempt is successful.
