His experiences navigating a new culture, learning a new language and building a life in a new country have shaped his perspective and fueled his comedy.
Anh’s bestselling autobiography, The Happiest Refugee, has captivated readers with its humour and heartfelt account of his journey. Now, he’s bringing his story to life on stage, combining stand-up comedy with personal anecdotes, photos and filmed segments.
The Happiest Refugee Live! is more than just a comedy show, it’s an uplifting and moving experience. Anh’s infectious energy and irrepressible humour will have you laughing, while his stories of perseverance and hope will leave you feeling inspired.
Anh is a celebrated Australian entertainer who has appeared on numerous TV shows, including Thank God You’re Here and Dancing with the Stars. He is also an accomplished author and artist, with his children’s book series becoming national bestsellers.
The Happiest Refugee has been praised by critics and audiences alike, with Russell Crowe calling it “the most surprising and inspiring read I have had in years”.
