Rakugo In English (Japan Foundation)

A Japanese Traditional “Sit-down” Comedy

RAKUGO is back again by strong popular demands!

RAKUGO or described as Japanese traditional “Sit-down” comedy, is the monodrama with funny stories. Having its origin in 16th century and established during Edo era (17-18th century), RAKUGO has been verbally passed down through one generation to another.

The performances in Kuala Lumpur in 2003 had brought a lot of laughter to Malaysian audiences. Reflect to the very well responce of the previous performances, The Japan Foundation, Kuala Lumpur brings them again to Malaysia to introduce completely brand new funny stories which will be performed in English to enable all Malaysians to enjoy the fascinating performance.
