Enjoy the rich cultural tradition of Japanese Rakugo through the light, comedic styling of Master Storyteller Katsura Sunshine. A celebrated, internationally renowned performer, Katsura Sunshine is the world’s only Western Rakugo Master. With a minimal set, Katsura Sunshine’s Rakugo features a lone storyteller dressed in kimono, kneeling on a cushion, using only a fan and a hand towel for props, entertains the audience with a comic monologue followed by a traditional story. Critics have raved “A delight, Katsura Sunshine’s Rakugo is funny and exciting. If you’re looking for a good way to laugh and forget your troubles this is the show for you!”
