Tonight in the TTON studio, yet another Englishman accompanies Richard. He’s a man who’s has a penchant for bursting Malaysian rooms with laughter from his comedy ever since 2012, it’s Justin Heyes!
Justin states that he started his comedic career in 2006 by writing jokes for other UK comedians. After the pen was down, his drive for the stage grew. In 2009, he bucked up and went on stage to perform as a comedian on his own. He quickly performed all over the UK and worked around the comedic circuit in London.
As 2012 swinged by, Justin decided to move over to the always sunny/raining Kuala Lumpur. He went on to build a name for himself, combining his unique alternative perspective comedy and the unnoticed gems of Malaysian culture, he soon became a regular at shows in Kuala Lumpur. Also branching out towards Penang, Singapore and even Cambodia!
He has has appeared in a few local productions, a sitcom called Cakap lah Melayu! which also features Phoon Chi Ho and Cinta Di Gerai, a local telemovie. Justin is noted for being the first British comedian who performed Komediri. A Harith Iskander production for pushing Bahasa Melayu stand-up comedy for the masses via Astro WARNA.
Lastly, Justin notes on his Facebook page, “because as my late Nan once said 'If you can make at least one person smile every day, you're doing something right'.” Good man, he is.
For the record, Justin scored 12!
