Are you ready to learn how to be white(r)? Don't worry, this is a safe space.

Then you need to attend the workshop: White Man's Burden, with billionaire philanthropist white man Christopher Rice.

After storming the Melbourne Comedy Festival, Chinese superstar He Huang returns, in character as Christopher Rice, in an outrageous satire on white culture. Do you know how white you really are? Do you feel alone in a non-white world? Ever thought of starting your own African charity?

Chris Rice will show you the way!
