Stand-up comedian Jordan Leung is serious about being funny.
The up-and-coming artist, who returned to Hong Kong from the US in 2020, has been learning Cantonese slang and catchphrases to tune in with the local audience. He enjoys pointing out local nuances and keeps a notebook in his pocket to help him develop ideas and structure them for a performance. Leung hopes locals can embrace and support other forms of the art.

Maitreyi Karanth has sold out a dozen one-woman shows at the legendary TakeOut Comedy Club, and starred in the film My Indian Boyfriend (2021) now available on Disney+.

Since then she has opened for Tom Cotter, Gina Yashere, Atul Khatri, Amit Tandon, Tom Rhodes, Paul Ogatta and Sean Patton. She has also performed in Bangkok, Singapore and India as a featured comedian.
