Got Keen? Open it in the appAbout
Award-winning Japanese comedian Takashi (Waka) is building next year's festival show, and you're invited to watch it take shape.
This is a work-in-progress night: brand-new jokes, fresh ideas and a first look inside Waka's brain before the show hits the festival circuit. Some bits will fly and some might not, and that's half the fun. You'll see comedy being made in real time, and your laughs will help decide what makes the cut.
Part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival.
