KUMAR: What Makes A Man A Man
27 – 31 March 2013
Esplanade Theatre
Hot shot, macho, strong, burly, fierce, garang, solid, grunting, ball-scratching, hunter-gathering provider – of laughs! In a word: KUMAR! No one man in Singapore has had such a wide-reaching impact on our society. He’s blazed trails dressed as a female while never ever denying he is truly MALE. What makes a MAN a MAN? Only Kumar can answer that with wicked humour and side-splitting laughs. This is One Round of Stand up Comedy heaven you can’t afford to miss! Ding Ding!
What makes a man a man? Listen to Kumar –
He’ll talk
He’ll walk
He’ll “wah lao eh” not give a fuck about whether or not you squirm in your seat or laugh till you piss about his take on men’s clothes or taking off men‘s clothes. He’ll talk about “MAN” fashion with passion and how everything “also action”.

This October, Sebastian Tan is back as Singapore’s Beloved Broadway singing, “Hokkien-Spiaking”, “Hamsum” Ah Beng. He’s going to make you ooh and aah at his velvety “Ge Tai” singing voice and laugh until you “peng” (“collapse”) with his unique brand of humour.
