My First and Her First.
by Shu on 10/22/24Gramercy Theatre - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5This was my first time to see her live and it was her first stand up comedy in the New York. Since she is already a celebrity in Japan, we were all excited and enjoyed just seeing her live. She has a distinct and likeable persona so she definitely has the strong presence on stage. Regarding the content of her performance, there were parts that I felt little repetitive and some part felt little inarticulate due to English not being her first language. However, I do give her a lot of credit for her audacity and challenging spirit doing stand up in a foreign language. There was a little more dirty jokes than I expected but overall I have a good time. I always thought doing a stand up is very nerve wrecking and hard but she held her show like a pro. I look forward to seeing her perform again.
