Muramoto, famous first as a member of the very successful manzai duo, Woman Rush Hour, later moved into political comedy and finally stand up. He is currently in New York training in English stand up. We will show I Am A Comedian, the documentary directed by Hyuga Fumiari about Muramoto's life and experience in the Japanese media world, which shuts out those who do political comedy. We will also have Muramoto do stand-up sets in both English and Japanese the evening before. Both are open to the public.</span><br><br><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Stand-up Comedy by Muramoto Daisuke</span><br><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">September 27, 2024, 6pm, Hopper Cabaret</span><br><a href="https://macmillan.yale.edu/eastasia/events/2024-09/japanese-stand-comedy-set-1" class="x1fey0fg xmper1u x1edh9d7"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">https://macmillan.yale.edu/eastasia/events/2024-09/japanese-stand-comedy-set-1</span></a><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><br><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br></span><div><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I Am a Comedian screening, with Q&A by Muramoto Daisuke </span><br><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">September 28, 2024, 7pm, Alice Cinema </span><br><a href="https://macmillan.yale.edu/eastasia/events/2024-09/i-am-comedian-2022-film-screening" class="x1fey0fg xmper1u x1edh9d7"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">https://macmillan.yale.edu/eastasia/events/2024-09/i-am-comedian-2022-film-screening</span></a><br><br><div>
