About

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.

    Atsuko was so funny!

    by STS on 1/29/24Punch Line Philly - Philadelphia

    Atsuko was so funny! Her comedy was easy to understand, yet unique. I was very satisfied to see her show. The comedian guy who was on before Atsuko was alright. Venue was small and nice, but the waiter seriously needed to take a shower. Phew… that was a tough one.

    Atsuko 🤩 / Punch Line 😒

    by Earnest on 1/28/24Punch Line Philly - Philadelphia

    Atsuko was fantastic. Charming, hilarious, and so graceful through myriad technical difficulties (house lights stayed up until she asked for them to go off, a bunch of sound cues were missed). Staff was attentive and kind.

    Underrated comic

    by FoodieInLA on 1/16/24Wilshire Ebell Theatre - Los Angeles

    Living in LA I have the good fortune of seeing excellent comics as they work on their materials throughout the year. Ditto w Atsuko so I was familiar with a couple of her bits on this show but they were slightly better and fit with the overall theme of her relationship w her husband and the theme of relationships in general. This show was definitely less about her grandmother with less Asian-accent. Hilarious and not one bomb. Highly recommend you catch her when she comes to your neck of the woods!!

    Favorite Stand Up Comedy Act

    by Germandrea on 1/16/24Wilshire Ebell Theatre - Los Angeles

    I loved Atsuko! She is the funniest stand up act out there. Loved the venue, very classy, our seats were great, but I think every seat at the Ebell is a good one. Loved that the event started at 7 with the opening act, Atsuko was on at around 7:40. We drove back to Santa Barbara and I was home at a reasonable time, When you're 50+ that's kinda important, haha. I missed that there were no drinks available for purchase.

    Go, Atsuko, go!

    by Yonsei C on 1/16/24Palace of Fine Arts - San Francisco

    Show opened with the charming Dylan Adler, and then Atsuko started her unique storytelling. I have so much more admiration for her, because early on she had to deal with a loud, possibly drunk man front row center after his lady friend got up and left. Security was useless, so Atsuko's husband Ryan eventually lured the loud man out to try to resolve things with the lady friend, who apparently was still in the lobby. It's not their job to play couples counselors! Some man hijacks the show, pulling focus from a woman whose performance we all paid to see. Right around when she's talking about feminism! Atsuko, pro that she is, gathered herself and continued with her show and endeared herself more to us, a very appreciative audience. Palace of Fine Arts, get better Security!

    Atsuko

    by Fe P. on 1/15/24Palace of Fine Arts - San Francisco

    Atsuko is a true gem in the comedy world! Her material is so relatable, so universal; her timing and delivery are always on point, and the outfits!!! I’m drawn to more normative attire and I love seeing her with colors I never imagined can go together. She pulls off everything so naturally and effortlessly. And more importantly, thank you for making us laugh at our own inner weirdness too :)

    She was hilarious, and Dylan, her opener, was manic fun!

    by Warren on 1/14/24Palace of Fine Arts - San Francisco

    I couldn’t imagine a better venue for Atsuko than the Palace of Fine Arts. Large enough to feel the energy of a crowd but still felt super intimate. Parking was super easy and entrance and exit were also convenient. Not a lot of great food options, but the show more than made up for it. Atsuko Okatsuka is one of the coolest and silliest humans. Her comedy style was very biographical, but she dipped into a bit more experimental comedy too, where she kind of did a Groundhog Day type of time loop, and I died. My wife and I are following her career cannot wait to see what she will do with her awesome talent. Dylan was also super funny and has earned a spot on our comedy radar!

    Hilarious!

    by MsLancealot on 12/11/23Varsity Theater - Minneapolis

    Atsuko was hilarious! I love how she always refers back to her previous jokes. She makes everything connect so well! Not only that, Varsity Theater had an amazing staff. Only issue was parking on a Saturday night.
