Takashi Wakasugi

Japanese Aussie

Due to popular demand, Takashi Wakasugi has added an extra show of Friday 17th May at 5:30pm at Basement Studio!

Japanese Boy Takashi Wakasugi has lived in Australia for 5 years. He is getting more Westernized, but he is still so Japanese. The more Western he becomes, the more he loves the culture and people. The more he loves the culture and people, the more he wants to write jokes about it. This show is about a Japanese boy who tries to show you his understanding and love about Western culture and people. Arigato.

★★★★ 'Funny, clever and insightful.' - ArtsHub, AUS 

"Where other Australian comedians can seem to struggle with the local audience, Wakasugi absolutely killed with an extended meditation on the class politics of how you eat leftover pizza" - Wellington Best Foods Comedy Gala 2024 Review, The Post

Winner - Director's Choice Award 2023, Melbourne International Comedy Festival
Nominee - Most Outstanding Show Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2024
