Hi I’m Showko. I’m a Japanese Actor, Comedian, Ventriloquist and Rakugo Performer (Japanese Sit-Down Comedian) based in Melbourne. I love performing for diverse audiences, ages and nationalities. Many people (and reviews – check them out here 😁) say that my show is original, quirky and hilarious!
I perform all over the world and can entertain from comedy clubs to corporate events, network TV to school shows & cultural events…I’m truly a comedian without borders!

MOTHER
Before TikTok, before Netflix… there was Rakugo – 400 years of laughs still trending.
Step into the wonderfully quirky world of Showko, the only fully trained Rakugo performer outside of Japan. Known for her offbeat imagination, razor-sharp wit, and surreal humour, Showko fuses tradition with the unexpected.
“Mother” is a time-bending, sci-fi comedy about family chaos, love, and laughter across generations. If you love Japanese culture, puppets, storytelling, or just want a comedy night unlike anything else in Melbourne – this is your chance. Don’t miss this rare one night show!
