“As quick with an opinion as he is with a joke, Forbes’ potent style is equal arts preacher and comedian, but it’s his self-abandon and candor that make this show a winner,” stated L.A. Weekly for “Ism”. “Ism” was Shang’s one-man show.
“His presentation is also quite unique,” Las Vegas Today mentioned. “In what he calls his natural personality, he delivers his routine with rambunctious fervor.”
