Citizen Chen The Island Tour 2026 (Live in Nanaimo) | Heading to Edinburgh Fringe
“Where is your furniture?”
When a Canadian border officer interrogated Scarlet about her couch, she didn’t see a threat—she saw a Feng Shui consultation.
In her hit solo show Citizen Chen, local Island comedian Scarlet Chen turns the high-stakes stress of immigration into a laugh-packed hour of cultural whiplash. From suspicious customs agents to the absurd lengths we go to “fit in,” come find out why the path to citizenship is paved with paperwork, bureaucracy, and poorly placed armchairs.
🌟 THE ROAD TO EDINBURGH
Before she takes the ferry all the way to the Edinburgh Fringe this August for a 24-show run, see the show where it all began. Expect razor-sharp observations, language mishaps, and that "laugh-out-loud" recognition of life between two worlds.
No small talk. Just punchlines, heart, and a lot of stamps.
