What happens when Japanese funeral etiquette meets American chaos? Find out in How To Die In Japan, a solo dark comedy making its East Coast debut at the District Fringe Festival this July.
Performer Miyo Yamauchi, a Moth StorySLAM Champion born and raised in Japan, guides audiences through the rigid rules of TPO — Time, Place, and Occasion — as she navigates loss from the collision point of two cultures with very different ideas about how to grieve. It's a show that's funnier than it sounds and more moving than you'd expect, blending original score, animation, and 70 minutes of sharp, personal storytelling.
The production features composer Michael D. Mortilla (Sony/Columbia Pictures, the Olympics), Gold Telly Award-winning visual designer Anthony Phills, lighting by Willow McFatter, and direction by Jane Morris (Second City, Brooklyn Nine-Nine). The Los Angeles premiere sold out in 36 hours.
