Lawrence Leung's Choose Your Own Adventure
Lawrence Leung's Choose Your Own Adventure is a six-part Australian comedy series starring and mainly written by Melbourne comedian Lawrence Leung. Produced by Chaser Broadcasting for ABC TV, it was filmed over nine weeks in 2008 in Sydney, Melbourne and Los Angeles. The show follows Leung as he tries to relive the dreams he had as a ten-year-old in the 1980s.
The series premiered on ABC1 on 25 March 2009 and ran until 29 April 2009. It later aired in the United States under the title The Lost Adventures of Lawrence Leung on Vibrant TV Network.
Described as an imaginative documentary/comedy/adventure, the program explores how childhood ambitions clash with adult realities, in funny and sometimes heartwarming ways. In each episode Leung revisits a childhood goal, such as finding his old sweetheart Angela, becoming a rock star, learning to be a man, being cool, striving to be the best in the world, and simply being himself. He seeks advice from experts and from his parents, Doris and Leo.
Guest stars include Tiffany, Ian Dickson, Margaret Pomeranz, David Stratton, Kerry O'Brien, Tim Rogers and Shabba Doo. The show's website offers extra content like games, clips and competitions, and episodes can be watched again by Australian viewers. A two-disc complete series DVD was released on 7 May 2009, featuring deleted scenes, music videos and a 57-minute tutorial by Leung on solving a Rubik’s Cube.
