Hi I’m Showko. I’m a Japanese Actor, Comedian, Ventriloquist and Rakugo Performer (Japanese Sit-Down Comedian) based in Melbourne. I love performing for diverse audiences, ages and nationalities. Many people (and reviews – check them out here 😁) say that my show is original, quirky and hilarious!
I perform all over the world and can entertain from comedy clubs to corporate events, network TV to school shows & cultural events…I’m truly a comedian without borders!

MOTHER
One Night Only in Melbourne!
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” – 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.
