Ollie Horn: Pig in Japan
Unlikely Japanese TV star Ollie Horn (UK) reflects on fame, identity, and how
on earth he managed to get fat while living in healthy Japan in his
intelligent and revealing debut festival hour.
After first learning his craft on the stages of the Oxford Revue, Ollie has gone onto perform as a headline act in over a dozen countries, including a sell-out show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2018. Ollie tells the fascinating story of how he fell into the Japanese entertainment industry, what it taught him about his own country, and why he suddenly had to give it all up.
"Smart, questioning stuff" The List.
"So much energy. This guy's gonna have a heart attack on stage one day" Brendon Burns.
