How To be Japanese: Your Normal Is Not My Normal

Vancouver - Due to popular demand, a Moth StorySLAM Champion, Miyo Yamauchi's hilarious solo show "How To Be Japanese: Your Normal is Not My Normal" will hit the Vancouver Fringe after her first solo show at the Hollywood Fringe was sold out in the first 48 hours and also at some other venues.

How To Be Japanese is directed by LA storytelling luminary Jane Morris and will be performed at Carousel Theatre for Young People, 1411 Cartwright St, Vancouver from September 7-17 at various times.

Yamauchi was born and raised in Japan, but now resides in Los Angeles where she is a mainstay audience favorite at popular storytelling venues like the Fanatic Salon Theater, Strong Words, Long Beach Community Theater, and the StoryMasters Club.

"When you enter a new culture like I have, you're the outsider. And that provides an excellent vantage point to question the status quo," Yamauchi explains. "I want the audience to see their normal from a different perspective through my odd world. When we understand the differences, we begin to recognize the similarities. And maybe when the audience is laughing at me and my crazy adventures, they might realize they're also laughing at themselves a bit."

***** "She is a great performer. She really is...I didn't know..." (Larry Hankin/Actor)
***** "How does one person command the stage for an hour and make it feel like 10 minutes? She makes it funny and inspiring and makes it feel like she's just telling us stories over a cup of coffee!" (Lisa Lockhart/Author and Public Speaker)
***** "Yamauchi is at her best when tendering cultural insights. She shows herself to be an enjoyable and very entertaining storyteller." (Ernest Kearney/Award-winning L.A. playwright)
