9 February 2014, The Philippine Times, Melbourne, Australia — After eight years, Filipino-American stand-up comedian Rex Navarrete is excited to visit Australia again for a series of shows. The first show is on 15 February 2014 at Club Italia in Sunshine, then the following day he will do a show in Sydney at the Burwood RSL in Burwood. He will also make his fans in New Zealand happy on 22 February at the Uxbridge Creative Centre in Auckland for the last leg of his Australia/New Zealand tour.

Rex told The Philippine Times that he is excited coming back to Australia. “I feel so very excited to finally come back to Australia since 2006. I cannot wait to reconnect with my fans in both Sydney and Melbourne. Plus, I love hearing that accent you’ve all adopted down under. It’ll give me a chance to meet new fans and say hello again to the fans I met eight years back,” he said.

Rex admits he is a fanboy of Aussie culture. “My first ever live rock concert was way back in 1983 to see “Men At Work” while growing up in San Francisco. There’s been so much great music and talent coming out of Australia. Your comedy is somewhat similar to ours in the US and very much close to the Pinoy sense of humor,” he said.

Rex will surely make his Australian audience laugh about funny stories being raised the Filipino way in an American culture. The funny man explains, “I love that Pinoys have embraced yet another great country to spread our wealth of culture and love. My experience as a second generation Filipino American finds a deep connection with those second generation Pinoy Aussies, so I’m super excited to be sharing our common upbringing to old and new fans.”

Marco Selorio, Promoter of MAS Presents, admits being excited working again with Rex. He himself is an avid fan: “Rex Navarrete is a very funny comedian. I’ve always been a big fan of his work. We had the pleasure of working with him back in 2006. It’s been eight years and we are delighted to bring him back again this month. Get ready! ”

Through his comedy shows, Rex will help raise funds for Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) survivors.

Tickets are available on www.eventixlive.com.au.
