ChopSchticks Returns: One Great Musician and a Top Headlining Comedian in Shanghai!
Big laughs and musical vibes hit Shanghai once again with ChopSchticks presented by The Comedy Tour on Thursday November 16th and Friday November 17th at 9:00pm at The Third Degree Music Lounge on the top floor of Three on the Bund. Our first musical opener ever, Amy Fairchild, brings rocking vibes to China. We thought we'd mix it up and try an opening musical act for a change and Amy is awesome. Amy opens for comedy veteran Rich Ceisler who's had specials on both HBO and Showtime and is hilarious. Rich performed with us back in Hong Kong in 1999 and in the 7 years that we've been bringing live comdy to Asia, Rich is the first headliner that we're bringing out for a repeat performance so don't miss it! For get tix Call Sherpas hotline 6209 6209 NOW! 250RMB at the door and 220RMB in advance up to Wed Nov 15th. Visit www.ChopSchticks.com for more info.

Inspired by the chairs made for the emperors court, ours are
thoughtfully designed for comfort and generations of wear. This piece has clean, unembellished designs that are executed of a substantial wood known for its unique markings and distinctive grain. This chair is made of solid elm wood boldly scaled and molded.
