What happens if you're born a "class clown" in Japan, grow up in the US and live around Europe as a filmmaker/actor/artist? Or born in Moldova and immigrated? Atsushi Ogata, filmmaker/comedian, roams across national borders in his stand-up show, turning cross-cultural observations, absurd misunderstandings and mishaps into laughs. Valeria Vulpe, formerly a mathematician, blends the absurdity of growing up in a country most people think is invented with the stark perspective of an immigrant.

Why see this show?

Two genuinely distinctive comedic voices with very different routes to the same outsider perspective. Cross-cultural comedy at its sharpest — funny because it's specific, resonant because it's true.
