Showko: Mother â€“ Japanese Sit-down Comedy

Before TikTok there was Rakugo â€¦400 years of stories still trending.

Step into the wonderfully quirky world of Showko, the only fully trained Rakugo performer outside of Japan. Known for her offbeat imagination, razor-sharp wit, and surreal humour, Showko fuses tradition with the unexpected in her brand-new solo show.

Mother is a time-bending, sci-fi comedy about family problems, love and laughter across generations. If you love Japanese culture, puppets, storytelling, or just want a comedy night unlike anything else in ³Ô¹ÏÍø â€“ this is your chance.

One night only. Donâ€™t miss it.
