We're back at Tokyo's biggest comedy festival

For the third year running, the Pirates are part of the Tokyo International Comedy Festival, the 11-day celebration of comedy that takes over Shibuya and venues across the city every September. The festival pulls together local favorites and international touring comedians for stand-up, roast battles, live podcast recordings, and, in our corner of it, live improv.

Our show happens at Tokyo Comedy Bar, the city's dedicated stand-up venue and the festival's home base, about a minute's walk from Shibuya Station. It is a different room from our usual Ebisu pub, with a different energy: a packed comedy crowd, a proper stage, and the buzz of a festival in full swing.

Note: this show is not at our usual Ebisu venue. Pirates of Tokyo Bay perform at the Tokyo International Comedy Festival, hosted at Tokyo Comedy Bar in Shibuya.

English and Japanese improv comedy, fully audience-driven. No script, no safety net. Shout out a suggestion and watch the cast spin it into characters, scenes, games, and sometimes song. You do not need both languages to enjoy it.

Venue: Tokyo Comedy Bar (Shibuya) https://www.google.com/maps/place/tokyo+comedy+bar/
Tickets: ¥2,500, sold by Tokyo Comedy Bar via Fienta
Drinks available for purchase at the venue.

Our regular monthly show returns to What the Dickens! in Ebisu the following Sunday, September 27. See Shows for details.
