Rakugo, a Japanese story-telling from the Edo period, will take you to a world you’ve never experienced! Be prepared to laugh out loud on February 23 at 6 PM in room 2.07 with master storyteller, Katsura Sunshine!

Rakugo is a form of yose (traditional Japanese verbal entertainment) originating from the Edo Period (1603–1868) as a means to entertain the everyday citizen. A storyteller sits upon a raise platform with only a paper fan and small cloth for props and tells an imaginative and comical tale.
