ATSUKO OKATSUKA is a stand-up comedian, actor, and writer based in LA. Atsuko was born in Taiwan and spent her childhood in Japan. Her debut standup special, THE INTRUDER - directed by Tig Notaro premiered on HBO, December 2022 and was named the "Best Debut Special of 2022" by the New York Times and one of the "Best Specials of 2022" by Vulture. She won the 2023 Gracie Award for "Best Special" and Atsuko is nominated for "Best Comedian" by the Wowie Awards. She was named one of Variety's 10 Comics to Watch for 2022, and when she made her late-night stand-up debut on THE LATE LATE SHOW WITH JAMES CORDEN, Vulture proclaimed she "won late-night." Atsuko's on-screen credits include HISTORY OF THE WORLD PT. II (Hulu), ROOM 104 (HBO), and THE SHOW NEXT DOOR WITH RANDALL PARK (ROKU+). She was raised by her grandmother, and they created the #DropChallenge together which has amassed more than 10 million views. Her unique upbringing brings an artfully-offbeat resilient persona which is perfectly embodied in her blunt bangs and bowl cut.
I love the venue and both the warm-up act and Atsuko were terrific.
Atsuko's intruder show on HBO was funny, but her new show is even better, and live is _way_ better than streaming. We appreciated that her act was free of gratuitous vulgarity and targeted to weirdos like us. We will be there for her next show.
If you loved Atsuko’s HBO special, you will not be disappointed. She had me and my friend laughing from beginning to end!
Atsuko does a great job of blending traditional stand up with a touch of theatre. She really keeps the audience engaged with a blend of fresh material, music, and physical comedy. Me and my wife paid for the "meet and greet"after the show and it was well worth the extra money. She really takes the time to have a conversation with her fans and poses for multiple photos and videos. Me and my wife couldn't have asked for a better experience, can't wait to see her again!
The show was great! She made us laugh throughout the whole show!
so fun, so perfect, this girl its on fire, please go and see her
Atsuko Okatsuka is a comedic genius! Drinks were also good!

Atsuko is an amazing, talented comedian! It was the first stand-up comedy show that I've ever been, and I loved it! My husband and I laughed whole time. She is naturally talented and funny. Love her performance!
Atsuko is an amazing comedian. She has us laughing from the moment she danced on stage.
