Andrew Phung

Andrew Phung swings by Kensington Studio to talk with me about his crazy-amazing journey so far–from first being introduced to Loose Moose Theatre, to his incredible non-profit work, balancing family life, his award winning performances on CBC Kim's Convenience—Andrew is making his mark on the world.

This episode has it all: insight into where his hustle comes from, his passion for the arts community, nude scenes on the big screen, and making the move across the country to Toronto from Calgary.

HOST NOTE: The picture used in this episode is one of about 100 pictures Andrew took of himself in the Green Room of The Loose Moose Theatre Company when I accidentally left my phone unattended during a show we were in. Over 100 pictures of Andrew. 100! Don't leave your phone lying around when Andrew is in the house.
