Kanan Gill: Not This Again
Rising from a strong digital following to become a formidable live performer, Kanan has headlined sold-out theatres and auditoriums around the world. His most recent world tour reached over 100,000 people across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia — a scale achieved by only a handful of Indian stand-up comics. Known for his calm stage presence and sharply constructed material, Kanan’s performances rely on precision rather than spectacle, earning him a loyal international audience.
In addition to stand-up, Kanan has written, acted, and released multiple comedy specials, further establishing his reputation as one of the defining voices in contemporary Indian comedy. His work reflects a confident restraint and clarity that resonate well beyond national borders.
In 2026, Kanan Gill returns with his most ambitious international tour to date, premiering a brand-new stand-up show across some of the most iconic venues across the globe. The performance is scheduled to take place in Hong Kong on December 5th. We invite you and your guests to join us at the theatre for an unforgettable evening of laughter.

Biswa Kalyan Rath - An evening of laughter before AI takes our job
After sold-out tours across North America and India, Biswa Kalyan Rath's world tour of his latest, highly acclaimed show, "Inventions" is coming to your city! In his new show Biswa brings to life his observational jokes and signature rant on some of the most fascinating human inventions - including one tiny one of his own!
Biswa Kalyan Rath wasn't just dipping his toes into comedy with Pretentious Movie Reviews on YouTube, it was the appetizer to the full-course hilarity he had in store. After delivering the uproarious stand-up special Biswa Mast Aadmi, he surprised everyone with Laakhon Mein Ek, a dark and gripping web series that delves into the brutal IIT coaching industry. The show's second season in 2019 proved he wasn't just a one-hit wonder in the storytelling game. Known for his signature angry rants and an ability to find humor in the most mundane of topics, Biswa's comedic style is equal parts unique and hysterical. He's followed up his debut special with two more critically acclaimed masterpieces - Sushi and Mood Kharab - the latter filmed at the iconic Soho Theatre in London.

Hong Kong Sinfonietta: Welcome to the New World
A heart-to-heart talk between Smetana and Dvořák – the giants of Czech music
on the occasion of Smetana’s 200th birthday celebration and Czech Year of Music
We remember Smetana and Dvořák as two of the best-known Czech composers today – probably because of Dvořák’s New World Symphony and Smetana’s My Fatherland. But we know much less of Dvořák and Smetana as we do other composers of the day. Today, through “live” conversations between the two composers, and possibly with the audience, we will be able to find out more about these men behind the music, especially of Dvořák, whose New World Symphony will be analysed as well as performed.
We let the composers introduce and speak for themselves about their lives and work… and let you into their world. “Which train did you take to come to this concert? I want to know the model number.” This could be how a typical conversation with Dvořák started, especially with his students. Now who would have guessed that Dvořák was a train fanatic!
Come and find out more about the composers and enjoy a concert with activities and information!
Programme
Smetana
My Fatherland: The Moldau
