He Huang

White Man's Burden

China

Winner Best Newcomer 2023 Sydney Comedy Festival

Nominee Best Newcomer 2023 Melbourne International Comedy Festival

Unmarried Chinese daughter He Huang came out as a white man on stage in her last show.

He thought she was a business tie and finger guns away from opportunity, respect and finally being able to understand bitcoin. It didn't exactly turn out that way. Instead, she now has a family to feed, a wife to please and has been tasked with solving all the world problems that her people (white men) caused.

This is her burden. White Man's Burden!

As seen on Thank God You're Here, Australia's Got Talent and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala

Venue Accessibility

The main entrance is via Swanston Street through the main portico doors. Ascend the main staircase - approx 20 carpeted stairs with handrails on either side. Once at the top, head through the large gilded bronze doors and turn right up the internal marble staircase of approx 20 stairs to Level 2. Travel down the red carpeted corridor and the performance space is on the right.

For step-free/wheelchair access, enter through the doorway on Swanston Street, to the left of the main staircase. Take the ramp and turn right to follow the corridor towards the lifts (if you reach the Lower Town Hall lobby, you have gone too far). There is lift access to the second floor where you can exit and turn left. Travel down the red carpeted corridor and the performance space is on the right.
