When schizophrenia and alcoholism collide in one Japanese family, comedy becomes her superpower--and ticket to freedom!
In her autobiographical dramedy show, Pretty Beast, Kazu revisits the past in order to reclaim her present as an in-demand, LA-based comedian and storyteller.
At turns devastating and devastatingly funny, Pretty Beast takes on family dysfunction, mental illness, societal sexism, and what it means to discover your own superpowers while there’s still enough time to use them for good.
