CEBU, Philippines - Get ready Cebu as Premier Filipino-American Comedian Rex Navarrete tickles your funny bone on November 25, 2011 for a one-night-only show at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel.
Manila born, California raised Rex Navarrete currently travels all over North America, touring cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and Hawaii doing his one-man show. He has also been regularly returning to Manila where his style of stand-up has become both wildly and widely appreciated.
Now, Rex Navarrete returns to Cebu bringing his brand of comedy from what he calls “real Rex moments,” reality and shared life experiences. “I don’t always make stuff up. I think everything has humor; you will always find humor,” he quips.
While his material is geared for a Filipino audience, the universality of his themes hit home with any race or nationality. His routine has evolved through the use of characters, many of whom are struggling underdogs.
His portrayals, which ranged from his teacher Mrs. Scott to his Uncle Boy and to Maritess, the domestic worker, has given him the voice to air his thoughts on issues and speak about things that otherwise wouldn’t be mentioned. “Our struggles become our comedy.”
Navarrete remains to be one of the hardest working, relatively unknown American comedians today though he’s performed alongside notable national headliners as George Lopez, DL Hughley, Paul Mooney, among others. He has produced a number of live comedy albums on CD and DVD under his own label Kakarabaw Productions and intends to churn out more for his growing audience.
Before he heads out to the United Kingdom where fans eagerly await his arrival, Cebuanos get first pick at “real Rex moments” LIVE at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel on November 25, 2011.
