Kristina Wong Performs Comedy Via Virtual Event

Kristina Wong For Public Office: Live From Her Home! is a performance spotlighting the comedic side of politics from Wong's perspective.

NORTH AUSTIN, TX — Texas Performing Arts invites the community to a virtual evening of laughs, satire and performance art by comedian Kristina Wong, and her interactive 65 minute comedic performance on a range of topics centered on the current political climate.

Kristina Wong For Public Office: Live From Her Home! scheduled Saturday, Sept. 18 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 20 at 5 p.m. is presented in partnership with Performance as Public Practice at the Department of Theatre and Dance, written and performed by Kristina Wong. The comedic performance mashes up campaign rallies, church revivals, and solo theater shows to uncover the history of voting, what it means to run for local office, and the impact artists can have on democracy. Originally built to tour alongside the rallies leading up to the 2020 Presidential election against a charming hand-sewn felt set she sewed herself, this rally is now being broadcast live from her home to yours! Audiences will also enjoy a "meet & greet" with Kristina following the performance.
