The comedy duo began performing together earlier this in a set called “Japan Big Time” on YouTube and all podcast streaming networks. Later, Williamson and Tanaka performed at Mic Drop Comedy San Diego on June 19.

Following their appearance together, Williamson was seen in the audience for America’s Got Talent, probably to support Tanaka.

On November 11, Williamson and Tanaka will take the stage at Nissi’s Entertainment Venue in Lafayette, Colorado.


Audience members must be at least 21 years of age to attend the show. Tickets are now on sale for $25 to $30.

Aiko Tanaka’s Unforgettable AGT Journey

If you recognized this comedian, it’s probably because she was on the most recent season of America’s Got Talent. The comedian was known for performing stand-up comedy that focuses on her Japanese accent and the difficulties of speaking english, among other struggles. Her fun-loving personality helped her reach the semifinal round of the show.

During the semifinal round of AGT, Tanaka was not able to gain enough votes to enter the top 5, eliminating her from the competition. Her performance on AGT is very well received by the viewers online with one viewer commenting “she’s hilarious!! I would totally go see her show!”

Having two professional stand-up comedians perform on the same show will have people wanting to watch their show. Both Williamson and Tanaka plan to deliver performances that will have great reactions from their audience.
