TKO Entertainment, Inc. proudly announces Toshi Cappuccino's solo New York cabaret show, "A Star is Born” based on his 2015 autobiographical stand up show The Grasshopper Wins. This show presented Toshi's life story as a comic reversal of Aesop's fable of the Grasshopper and the Ant and was a hit with audiences, inspiring requests for a cabaret show version. Combining newly-written songs, favorite originals and some covers, this new show tells the story of Toshi's life as a gay boy growing up in southern Japan, his early career as a nightclub entertainer, later adventures adapting to life in bizarre new countries and final triumph as a "A Star is Born" in the jungle of New York City.
Toshi Cappuccino has appeared at the Duplex 46 times since March 2013. His performances have consistently sold out in NY, Akron, Columbus, Fukuoka, Oita, Akita, Tokyo and Kagoshima. This show would be performed in Japanese.
A Star is Born is written, produced, directed and performed by Toshi Cappuccino. A native of Hakata, he is an entertainer, critic, producer, TV personality, and a voter for the New York Drama Desk Awards.
