Showko: Mother – Japanese Sit-down Comedy

Before TikTok there was Rakugo …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 Melbourne – this is your chance.

One night only. Don’t miss it.
