Tokyo Comedy Bar Shinjuku Stage

The folks behind Shibuya’s Tokyo Comedy Bar are taking their show on the road – well, a couple stations north on the Yamanote Line – with this new weekly stand-up comedy showcase in Shinjuku. Invading Kabukicho’s DecaBar Super every Friday and Saturday night from 8pm, Shinjuku Stage features what for this area counts as wholesome entertainment, in the form of high-energy performances in both English and Japanese. Whether you’re a local looking to tickle your funny bone or a newcomer in need of some good honest jokes in the neon-lit surroundings, this show is likely to fit the bill. Tickets are available via Tokyo Comedy Bar.
