James Roque Comedy at the Biltmore
On September 6, 2026, comedian James Roque is set to perform at the Biltmore Cabaret as part of the 2026 Vancouver is Funny comedy festival.
About the event:
The Kiwi-Pinoy Comedy Boy is back—hitting the road for his first-ever world tour with a brand new show, Mano Po.
A ‘mano po’ is a Filipino gesture of respect—given to your elders. And for Filipinos, you already know the fear: one day, it’s coming for you.
In 2025, James received his first serious ‘mano po’ request from a teenager which sent him into a spiral. Is he really old enough for this? What if he hasn’t done enough with his life? Is this what a mid-life crisis feels like? Should he get a motorcycle? Damn, life comes at you FAST.
A funny and heartfelt new hour about ageing, unpacking your life and the panic of realising you’ve become the adult—whether you’re ready or not.
