Tangren Cultural Group, in collaboration with Youth Folk Arts Club, proudly presents this extraordinary comedic event to Chinese in Australia.

What is it about?

Similar to a stand-up comedy, cross-talk (相声), which literally means “mutual voice” involving two guys engaging in an entertaining dialogue.

There are four skills that are essential in cross-talk: speaking (说), imitating (学), teasing(逗), and singing (唱).

More often, it is performed with two actors where one serves as the lead role while the other plays a supportive role.

The humor involved in crosstalk is, for the most part, satirical. The language is snappy in delivery and rich in puns and word-plays.

Watch a preview of the crosstalk comedy here.

When is it coming?
