Comedy Night @ Bamboo ft Tim To, Ryan Hynek, Temby Chan, & Bing Zhu

“Tim's jokes sound like someone recalling a night out whilst it's still happening and somehow funnier” - Ashley James

Tim To is a Chinese Canadian comedian, he grew up in Toronto and has spent about a decade living in Hong Kong. His comedic style explores his unhinged interpretation of his experiences and defines his own brand of logic. In 2020, he was the winner of BushiRoast 4 and continues to explore his comedic style in shows throughout Hong Kong.

Ryan Hynek is a Chicago native who’s been yucking it up on the Asia Comedy circuit since 2007. Knowing that comedy won’t pay the rent in his 300 foot ‘deluxe’ apartment in the sky, Ryan works full-time as a secondary school English teacher. He’s the first to admit that he uses his students as guinea pigs for his brand of observational humor and finds success in their puzzled looks. He’s a top three finalist in the Hong Kong International Comedy Festival and has played clubs around the world from Chicago to Hanoi. You can find Ryan poking around the comedy clubs in HK most weekends.

"One of my favorite comedians to watch live. Guaranteed to get people to stay at your cruise ship bar 30 minutes longer." - Turner Sparks

After immigrating to Canada at the age of 7, Tamby developed his sense of humor as a social defense mechanism in lieu of speaking fluent English. He has been continuously refining his comedic voice through trial and error ever since.

Tamby represented Hong Kong in Laugh Factory’s Funniest Person in the World Contest, was the winner of the Bangkok division of the Magners International Comedy Competition 2018, placed second at the regional finals, has been selected as a finalist at numerous international comedy festivals, and has appeared on TV like four times. His unique perspective, incisive writing, and adequate stage presence has made him a popular headline act around Asia.

Bing was crafted in Shanghai, refined in NYC and recently shipped to HK 1.5 years ago. Once a performer of traditional Chinese comedy - where the goal was more about awe than laughter (think: impressing Chinese parents)- she has since pivoted to the world of stand-up. By day, she’s an office worker. By night, a comedian, theater enthusiast, and film actress - none of these pay enough for her to thrive in HK’s wallet-crushing reality, but she persists anyway.

“Bing clings to her youthful energy and brings vivacity to the bleakness with her zest for adventure and love of laughter - providing a refreshing and joyful break.” – TheaterScene (back when Bing was actually youthful)
