The Victor Wong Showcase features the talented recipients of the 2025 Victor Wong Fellowship, a program dedicated to nurturing Asian American and Pacific Islander voices in comedy. Under the direction of Sophia Rafiqi, the showcase highlights ten rising stars including Carolyn Hu Bradbury, Cameron Cai, and Lauren Hugh, who bring unique perspectives and comedic flair to the stage. This initiative aims to provide a platform for AAPI artists, fostering creativity and community within the comedic landscape. Performances take place every Tuesday in May at The Second City.
