chris grace as Scarlett johansson
Chris Grace, America’s 88th-most beloved Chinese actor, celebrates the life of his greatest inspiration and the most capable portrayer of Asian lives today: Scarlett Johansson.
Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson explores both Chris and Scarlett’s biographies through stand-up comedy, stage combat, and the songs of Tom Waits. This show reimagines what is and isn’t possible… or appropriate… in the life of an artist.
This internationally loved comedy show, and Edinburgh Fringe hit, is finally coming to Philadelphia for two nights. And only at CSz Philadelphia!
✭✭✭✭✭ ‘Inventive and genuinely funny” EDINBURGH REVIEWS
✭✭✭✭ “An intricate takedown of fixed identity that will leave your mind buzzing… it’s rich, it’s complex – and it’s knottily funny” THE GUARDIAN
✭✭✭✭ “An unusual combination of genuine surprises, sharp wit and food for thought” THE TELEGRAPH
✭✭✭✭”A dizzyingly multi-layered comedy show … resolutely silly head-scratching fun … ingenious" THE SCOTSMAN
✭✭✭✭ “Outstanding… a brilliantly written and performed hour, and you’ll be thinking about it for a long time to come” THE LIST
SARDINES
After his smash-hit show Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson, actor and comedian Chris Grace moved from solving racism to solving… death? Chris Grace: Sardines explores the tragic, hilarious and important questions of our time:
Can we enjoy life if we know how it ends?
Does making art actually help?
And if Rihanna's song is called Don't Stop the Music, why does the music... stop?
This is a comic look at the people in Chris’s life who have passed, and how he has managed to live a full, joyous life in spite of that. His existential ice cream sundae has every flavor of grief in it; from parents to siblings to partners, he’s experienced it all and he’s made it out the other side.
Find out in this insightful and vulnerable comedy that was a hit at numerous fringe festivals around the world, including the famed Edinburgh Fringe Festival. This June, it plays for one performance, only at CSz Philadelphia.
