Atsuko Okatsuka – The Big Bowl Tour - Falkonersalen

DANISH:

Oprindeligt fra Taiwan og med det meste af hendes barndom tilbragt i Japan, har Atsuko Okatsuka fundet sig selv blandt toppen af comedy i LA, hvor hun samtidig beskæftiger sig med at være forfatter og skuespiller. Karrieren tog for alvor fart efter udgivelsen af hendes debut standup special THE INTRUDER, som fik premiere på HBO i december 2022 og er instrueret af selveste comedy-legenden Tig Notaro.

Hvad der fulgte, var et hav af ros og priser til komikeren. Blandt andet blev hendes special kåret som ”Best Debut Special of 2022” af New York Times og en af de bedste specials af magasinet Vulture. I 2023 vandt hun en Gracie Award for ”Best Special” og Atsuko er nomineret til en Wowie Award for ”Best Comedian”.

Anmeldere, såvel som hendes publikum, har i hvert fald tilsluttet sig Atsukos kunstnerisk-skæve, men også hårdføre persona, der kommer til udtryk i hendes markante pandehår og bowl cut frisure. På mange måder finder denne unikke personlighed sine rødder i hendes opvækst med sin bedstemor, der sammen med Atsuko skabte #DropChallenge, der samlet har fået over 10 millioner visninger.

Nu drager Atsuko ud i verden på hendes Full Grown Tour, og hun føler sig mere voksen en nogensinde før. Efter at have fundet ud af alt fra at vaske tøj, til charcuteribord, til hendes forhold til sin far, kan hun snart ikke blive et mere sammensat menneske. Ingen noter eller rettelser nødvendige! Du kan godt begynde at glæde dig til Atsuko Okatsuka baner vejen forbi København i starten af 2024.

ENGELSK:

Originally from Taiwan and having spent most of her childhood in Japan, Atsuko Okatsuka has established herself among the top comedians in LA, while also working as a writer and actress. Her career really took off following the release of her debut stand-up special, THE INTRUDER, which premiered on HBO in December 2022 and was directed by comedy legend Tig Notaro.

What followed was an abundance of praise and awards for the comedian. Among other accolades, her special was named “Best Debut Special of 2022” by The New York Times and was included among Vulture magazine’s best specials. In 2023, she won a Gracie Award for “Best Special,” and Atsuko was nominated for a Wowie Award for “Best Comedian.”

Both critics and audiences have embraced Atsuko’s artistically quirky yet tough persona, expressed through her distinctive bangs and bowl-cut hairstyle. In many ways, this unique personality has its roots in her upbringing with her grandmother, who, together with Atsuko, created the #DropChallenge, which has amassed more than 10 million views.

Now Atsuko is heading out on her Full Grown Tour, and she feels more grown-up than ever. After figuring out everything from doing laundry to putting together a charcuterie board to navigating her relationship with her father, she can hardly become a more well-rounded person.

No notes or corrections necessary! You can start looking forward to Atsuko Okatsuka making her way to Copenhagen in early 2024.

Tickets will be sent to you by mail one week before the show.
