Phil Wang : UH OH
Phil Wang’s latest tour, Uh Oh, marks his biggest yet, running across the UK and Ireland from September 2026 into 2027. The Anvil date in Basingstoke is a highlight stop, giving local audiences the chance to see one of Britain’s most distinctive comedy voices live. Known for his cerebral charm and deadpan delivery, Wang blends personal anecdotes with razor-sharp commentary on modern life.
The show’s blurb teases “He’s older than ever before. He’s got a moustache now. It bristles with wisdom. His eyes shine with good humour. His shoulders groan under the weight of being the only cool millennial left. Everyone’s an idiot but him. Nice is out. Right is in. The vibe shift is real. Old Wang’s riding it.”
Expect a mix of self-deprecating humour, cultural satire, and Wang’s trademark ability to poke fun at both himself and society at large.
