What is Osaka comedy club?
Osaka Comedy Club is a standup comedy collective based in Namba, Osaka, Japan and one of the only stand up comedy venues in Asia. Despite being known as Japan's 'Comedy Capital', Osaka had no English-language stand up comedy group until 2011, when we first burst onto the scene as "ROR Comedy".

Since then, the group has performed sold-out shows throughout Japan, including Tokyo, Nagoya and Okinawa. Osaka Comedy Club has received the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence 5 years running as well as Kansai Scene's Reader's Choice Award. OCC comedians have won multiple awards and regularly perform at some of the world's most famous comedy clubs, including The London Comedy Store, Yuk Yuk's Toronto and Top Secret Comedy Club.
