Annie Yang: I wish I was kidding

Some people process trauma in therapy. Annie Yang processes it on stage.

After four sold-out solo shows across Indonesia, appearances on Comedy Central Indonesia and becoming the only female finalist of SUCI X, Annie brings her darkest and most personal hour to Adelaide Fringe.

Growing up Chinese Indonesian in Jakarta, Annie has survived dysfunctional family dynamics, toxic relationships, depression and more than her fair share of questionable decisions.

Through brutally honest storytelling and razor-sharp dark humour, I Wish I Was Kidding explores family, sex, mental health and identity, finding comedy in life’s most uncomfortable moments.

The only problem? Every story is true.

Annie wishes she was kidding.
