Sam See tells an interesting story about moving from Singapore to UK and the culture clashes that come as an result: Learning new New Year's Eve traditions, roasting state propaganda films from back home, and overcoming illness and strife to prove one's exceptional promise; having seen Sam at last year's Edinburgh Fringe, I did notice the differences from last year's "Government Approved" sex-education routine to the more personal story told in "I Can't Feel at Home". His charming personality definitely bridged the two shows and will be much-appreciated by people familiar with his prior work, and he certainly has great potential as he now leads a new life in the UK.

What a great comedian. HIs one hour special is so much fun. His tale of seeking acceptance for his brand of comedy and for himself as a person is warm, emotive and hilarious. Must - see!

Sam is a wonderful comedian who is funny and philosophical. I laughed a lot but also learned how it felt to be in another country. He has enormous charm and I highly recommend this show.

Sam See is a brilliant comic, storyteller and performer in general. This year's show is a beautiful story, filled with jokes, emotions, sarcasm, reflection.
