Sold Out in Shibuya: Pirates of Tokyo Bay Rock the Tokyo International Comedy Festival

Did you hear the news? The Pirates of Tokyo Bay recently set sail for a sold-out show at the second annual Tokyo International Comedy Festival! Swapping our usual British pub in Ebisu for a night at the Tokyo Comedy Bar in Shibuya, we were thrilled to be part of the city's vibrant comedy scene.

The energy was electric. Our performance, part of the 11-day, 75-show festival sponsored by Baird Beer, was a true highlight. It was a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with fellow improvisers from the Tokyo Comedy Bar's own group, strengthening the bonds within our community. The audience, a diverse mix of locals and visitors, packed the house, proving that laughter truly is a universal language.

Our English and Japanese shows are designed to break down barriers, making improv comedy accessible to everyone. We believe comedy shouldn't be limited by language, and that's why we weave both languages seamlessly into our games. This approach offers several key benefits:

• For English Speakers: It's a fun, low-pressure way to be exposed to the Japanese language and culture in a natural setting.

• For Japanese Speakers: You can enjoy a show in your native language while also getting a taste of English-language comedy. It's a great opportunity to listen and learn new words in a relaxed environment.

• For Everyone: Our shows rely heavily on physical comedy, gestures, and universal themes. Whether you speak English, Japanese, or a mix of both, you can enjoy the spontaneity of improv with everyone else. We use physical cues, sound effects, and simple gestures to ensure that the jokes land, regardless of your native language.

The success of our show at the Tokyo International Comedy Festival has us energized and ready for more. It reminded us that while traveling to new venues is exciting, there's no place like home.

So, if you missed our sold-out night in Shibuya, don't worry! You can catch us at our regular monthly show at What the Dickens in Ebisu. Come join the fun and see for yourself why the Pirates of Tokyo Bay are the best night out in town!

Martians climbing palm trees and other things to expect at a Pirates of Tokyo Bay improv show

The Pirates of Tokyo Bay’s last show of 2024 ended with Mike, the swashbuckling mind behind Pirates of Tokyo Bay, and Hiromi - the Jap-anglo-francophone Pirate newbie, warming up the crowd. Mike asked, "Tea or coffee?" Hiromi jumped in to translate into Japanese: "If you like tea or coffee, please raise your hand," which does seem to be the culturally appropriate instructions.  Then Mike reiterated urging everyone to shout their preference at once. "Tea lovers say 'tea,' coffee lovers say 'coffee!'" Hiromi, without missing a beat, instantly reworked the rules to encourage Japanese speakers to join in…

On the count of three, the crowd erupted. It was clear: everyone was ready for a good time - and maybe it was extra loud due to the high caffeine intake as coffee seemed to overwhelmingly be the beverage of choice.

Hiromi and Mike were warming up the crowd because improv is a form of theater that relies on spontaneous collaboration, where performers create scenes, characters, and stories in real time without a script, using audience suggestions as a starting point.

This inspiration helps make each show one-of-kind and comes in many forms, from your one-word suggestions such as ‘a place where you’d take a first date’ to an interview of an audience member.  

In this show, when MC Trey asked for a volunteer, a hand shot up right away. Once situated in the center of the stage, Trey asked the volunteer, “Should we do this interview in English or Japanese?" The answer? "English, please!" 

Knowing the way forward, Trey asked, “Okay, what’s your name?” “Yui desu,” the audience member replied. And In true improv form, Trey took the answer and ran with it, “Okay this is ‘Yuides’...” Yui paused and laughed, saying, "No, my name is Yui. I said 'Yuidesu' like how you introduce yourself in Japanese." The stage and audience all giggled at this delightful bilingual miscommunication.

The Pirates of Tokyo Bay improv group works hard to be inclusive. The performers play games and host the whole show in both English and Japanese, allowing the audience to enjoy a truly bilingual experience. They also play some games in made up languages, called gibberish, and everyone can understand those.   

In that night’s gibberish game, jack-of-all-trades Rodger worked tirelessly to convey the phrase 'palm tree' without using real language. Speaking a language and in a manner that I can only ascribe to an exceptionally helpful and fervently caffeinated martian, Rodger did a small hula dance and patted a tree, which he climbed up and down.  

Mike, whose job it was to guess the word, gestured to a bra to convey that he was guessing the word “coconut”. The martian, extra determined to convey “palm tree,” doubled down and climbed up that tree again, reached the top, and caressed the palm fronds. And then he caressed those fronds again.  And again.

At this point - the game was won - Rodger successfully communicated “palm tree” to Mike who signaled, thumbs up, got it!  As backstory, in this game, Mike had to do his household chores of cleaning the litter box, but with a twist.  His teammates had to explain the new chore to him without words.  Instead of cleaning the litter with a scooper for his cat, he was cleaning a palm tree with a cowboy hat for his pet bulldozer, of course! 

Pirates of Tokyo Bay shows are downright hilarious.  But as someone who has taken improv classes, I also see all the real-life lessons that the improv show puts on display that I hope to carry into my everyday life.  What if I engaged in my work meetings as enthusiastically as the audience members yelling out “coffee.”  What if I embraced language, cultural and other misunderstandings in a fun and lighthearted way, as Trey and Yui did, turning a mistake into a joyful inside joke.  What if I reimagined my chores in a whimsical, magical way?

I hope for these things for myself in the new year!  

It’s the start of the new year— make it your new year's resolution this year to come to your first, second, or 47th pirates’ show.  It’s a roaring good time filled with surprises, laughter, and a lot of creativity and spontaneity that can inspire your everyday life - whether that be participating fully, embracing mistakes, or looking for fun.  

Say “yes, and” to 2025!  Looking forward to seeing you at our next show!

Audience Member to Pirate: My Improv Journey, That Could Be Yours

I’d always admired the spontaneity and quick wit of improv comedians, but I never thought I would have the opportunity try it myself on stage. Two year ago I heard about the Pirates of Tokyo Bay Improv group auditions at Tokyo Comedy Bar. The name alone was enough to pique my interest.

The audition was a whirlwind of games, challenges, and unexpected twists. We stumbled made a fools of ourselves and laughed as we did it. As the audition progressed, I began to relax and enjoy the chaos. The other auditionees were so supportive and encouraging, and the Pirates were patient and very funnyl.

Later that week I got the email. I was accepted into the Pirates of Tokyo Bay Bilingual  Improv Group. It was like joining a secret society of comedic misfits. We practiced together every week, honing our skills and building a strong bond. The group is a diverse mix of people from all walks of life, united by a shared love of laughter and improvisation.

One of my most memorable experiences was performing at the Manila Improv Festival where we had to create an entire improv scenes based on suggestion for an audience that was unklike those we see each month in Tokyo. It was a wild ride, and the audience loved it.

Being a member of the Pirates of Tokyo Bay has been a transformative experience. It has helped me to become more confident, creative, and spontaneous. It has also given me the opportunity to meet amazing people and make lifelong friends.

Now it’s your turn. If you're thinking about auditioning for the Pirates of Tokyo Bay Bilingual Improv Group, I encourage you to do it. It's a fun, challenging, and rewarding experience. You'll learn new skills, meet like-minded people, and discover hidden talents you never knew you had. So don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone and join the crew.

Laughing Out Loud: The Benefits of Practicing Improv at the Tokyo Comedy Bar

Improv comedy is a unique and dynamic form of entertainment that requires quick thinking, creativity, and a supportive environment to thrive. That's why finding the right practice space is crucial for us. To keep up improv skills sharp, we need to practice regularly. If we aren’t performing in Tokyo or touring international, we are probably practicing. Luckily, there is one place in Tokyo that provides everything an improv performer needs to hone their craft and bring their comedic talents to life.

Marshmallows and improv. A perfect match 😂

Located in the heart of Shibuya in Tokyo, the Tokyo Comedy Bar is an amazing practice space and a hub of creative energy, where performers from all walks of life gather each week to perfect their craft. With its cozy stage and supportive atmosphere, this practice space provides the perfect environment for improvisers to experiment, collaborate, and most importantly, have fun. The craft beer at the bar after practice is great too!

One of the best things about this practice space is the sense of community it fosters. Improv is a collaborative art form, and the atmosphere at this space encourages performers to work together and support one another. Whether you’re a seasoned member of the Pirates or just starting out, everyone is welcoming and eager to share their skills and experience with each other.

In conclusion, the Tokyo Comedy Bar has been a great place for us to practice and be even more involved with the comedy community in Tokyo. If you are unable to make one of our monthly bilingual improv comedy shows in Ebisu, be sure to check out what is going on at the Tokyo Comedy Bar in Shibuya.

POTBU Level 1 🎓

CongratS to all of our amazing POTBU Level 1 graduates!

We had a really fun and challenging first semester. There were lots of new information and skills to take in, especially for the students who had never performed on stage or studied improvisation before. But despite the constant challenges in front of them, each student really brought their “A game” and made significant improvement throughout the first semester.

It takes time for each performer to find their own voice when it comes to employing all these new tactics in a scene, game or even a warmup. But I'm happy to say that everyone was able to come out of their shell, enjoy the challenges laid out in front of them and have fun while simultaneously embracing the discomfort of learning something new. Improv is not always something that comes easy for a lot of people, but it's universal in how it can relate and improve every one of our lives.

If you plan to perform in any capacity, improv will undoubtedly assist you on your way. But especially for those who hate public speaking, hate standing out, hate any kind of spotlight, etc., improv training lets you get used to those little fears that pop up in everyday life. You get so used to them that by the time class is finished and you go back to your regular schedule, presenting a report on a Zoom call is no longer that stressful. Standing up and introducing yourself at the staff meeting becomes a breeze.

Seeing people unlock that achievement in themselves has definitely been the highlight of this first session for me.

POTBUレベル1卒業おめでとう！

楽しくまた挑戦の多い１期でしたね。
特に即興を学んだり演じたりしたことのない方にとっては新たな情報やスキルも多かったのでは？
しかし各々が高い関心をもって受講をしたおかげで多くの成長が感じられた1期となりました。
「自分の声」というものを見つけるのにそれなりに時間がかかります。

全員が殻を破り、新しいことを学ぶ当惑を楽しさに変えて挑戦をしつづけてくれました。
即興の習得は容易ではありません。しかし即興の実は生活に影響を与え、また改善してくれる普遍的なスキルです。

これからどんな形であれ演じる機会が現れたなら、即興のスキルが役に立つでしょう。
特に人前で話すことが苦手な人、脚光を浴びるのが苦手な人、そんな小さな恐怖がチョコチョコと日常に見え隠れする方には最適です。
クラスが終わるころには慣れてしまい、Zoom越しでレポートを発表することすらストレスなくこなせるでしょう。

スタッフミーティングでの自己紹介はお茶の子さいさい。
私にとって1期で最も印象残っているのは皆さんが各自のチャレンジを達成していく姿でした。
