Mo Rodvanich joined a global lineup for human rights comedy and finding laughter in life’s challenges<\/h3>\n

Kittiporn “Tangmo” Rodvanich, one of Koktail’s Future List 100 2023, is not your typical Hollywood success story. Before making her mark in the US entertainment industry with stand-up comedy and a stint on “NCIS Los Angeles,” Tangmo navigated a diverse range of jobs. From being a wedding organiser to making props, waiting tables, and working as a kitchen helper, she did it all. Her unique journey led her to become the first Master of Fine Arts acting student from Thailand at the University of California San Diego, supported by a full scholarship.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turning Heartache into Laughter<\/h1>\n

Last few years have been a roller coaster of emotions for Tangmo, marked by a divorce, breaking into the competitive LA entertainment industry, and the loss of her father to illness. Rather than succumbing to despair, Tangmo turned her pain into art. She transformed her love and heartache into a stand-up comedy sketch, drawing inspiration from the deep tragedies depicted in an American playwright, Eugene O’Neill’s plays, known for his exploration of deep psychological and familial themes. His works, influenced by personal struggles, continue to be celebrated for their impact on modern drama. Tangmo takes pride in making people laugh and inspiring them to be proud of themselves and mentally resilient.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stand-Up for Human Rights<\/h1>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

On December 10, 2023, Tangmo participated in “Stand-Up for Human Rights,” a comedy show aimed at addressing human rights issues through humour. The event, held at the Alliance Française auditorium and organised by the UN Human Rights Office in Bangkok, was free and open to the public.<\/p>\n
