Our Amsterdam photo dump is coming but it wouldn’t be right if we didn’t offer our immense gratitude to all of the people listed here that helped us make the festival happen in the first place. It was a lot of work leading up to it, however we made history as the first all AAPI comedy team performing at Boom Chicago as well as SFN’s first international trip in its 29 years of existence! Thank You Thank you THANK YOU! We really couldn’t have done it without you!
A hot show!!! Our second festival of the summer! (Don’t worry they’ll be an Amsterdam photo dump soon we swear) We had such a fun time playing in iO Fest last night! It’s always a good time at @iochicago

Thank you so much @af_chicago for having us walk in the pride parade with you all! We had such a blast!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who contributed to our Duck Dine Donate Fundraiser this past Monday. We had a blast and even had several donations from other diners at Sun Wah! Some of our donors will be sailing, going on pastry tours, and watching WBNA games all for the love of AAPI Comedy in Amsterdam! If you missed out, there’s still time to donate! Help us make our final push to the Netherlands!
Congrats to our current SFN ensemble members for finishing their run of the 2024 Victor Wong Showcase at Second City! Our former Executive Director @asraofnazareth also coming through to support on their final day! @ateeqmr (ensemble) @mayaki_tanaka (music director) @sophiqi (assistant director)
TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT! I’m sure you’ve all been curious what items the SFN cast has assembled for you to bid on for tonight’s fundraiser dinner @sunwahbbq from 7-9pm and here they are! Purchase Tickets at the Link in Bio! We’ve also heard people are interested in attending just to bid and that’s perfectly fine. Let us know at the door!
We had an amazing time performing at @faaimchicago 27th Annual Asian American Showcase! It makes our heart full sharing the stage with such talented and funny AAPI performers!
