"Slap-the-skin-off-your-knees hilarious; cutting edge comedy from one of Adelaide_x0019_ s finest." - Buzzcuts. After 4 1/2 stars and a Judges' Commendation at the 2010 Adelaide Fringe, Jason Chong brings Reel Life back - rebooted for kids! Movies come to life as Jason interacts with a huge screen to save his angel and defeat his devil in true Hollywood style! (Hollywood style not guaranteed). "People who brought their kids to Reel Life told me how much they loved it. So I_x0019_ ve decided to make a version just for people shorter than me" said Jason, clearly in the third person. Jason has been tolerated on The Project, Today, The Footy Show, NOVA, SAFM and Google. "seriously smart, high-tech comedy" - The Advertiser. "a complex interactive adventure, where reality and fantasy blend almost seamlessly" - dB Magazine. "the digital upgrade to analogue comedy" - Buzzcuts. "you_x0019_ ll struggle to come across a more original show in the festival." - Crikey. www.jasonchong.com @jasonchongcomic Jason has 2 other shows in the Fringe: Jason Chong's Mum, is an hour of stories and jokes more for mums and dads. It's on March 6-18 6:30pm @ The Campanile. Festival Fishbowl, is an online chat show you can check out for free from 12 midday - 1pm each weekday at www.festivalfishbowl.com. About Jason: Somewhere between taking the stage in 2001 and blitzing it with his 2011 festival show Reel Life, Jason Chong became a comic who could headline and MC anywhere. It's all down to Jason's quick wit, a general cleverness in his comedy and a specific passion for technology that he brings to it. Jason's festival shows include the two-hander Sort of the Rings, Minority Retort, EmotiChong and Why The Bloody Hell Aren't Ya? as well as 2010's sell-out Reel Life which received the Judges Commendation in Adelaide. In 2009 Jason was named Adelaide's Comic of the Year. He has just finished an 18 month tour with the award winning Il Dago. Jason's radio work began in 2005, with three years of presenting NOVA 919's Nights. He served as a regular correspondent on SAFM's Breakfast from 2008. Jason's television appearances include The Footy Show, Today (Channel 9), The 7pm Project (Ten), The Squiz (SBS) and The Mansion (Comedy Channel). In 2011 Jason hosted Festival Fishbowl, an online program netcast weekdays during the Adelaide Fringe, showcasing the work of over a hundred comedians.
