More Information (95.3 KGY is not responsible for external websites)
Inspired by Japan’s infamous batsu game (罰ゲーム, “punishment game”), four fearless comedians face off in improv challenges where failure means hilarious punishment – from shocking surprises to paintball splatters -all with the audience deciding their fate.
Hosted by Japanese TV star Brian “Bu-Chan” Walters, BATSU! blends the spectacle of Japanese variety shows with the unpredictability of American improv. If Whose Line is it Anyway? and Squid Game had a child, this would be it!
Critics agree:
• “This is truly our favorite thing we’ve ever seen, anywhere.” — Playbill
• “Hilarious, strange and kind of sick!” — Thrillist
• “Audiences roared with laughter.” — Chicago Sun-Times
• “It’s ridiculous, hilarious, sexy, gross – really, it’s addictive.” — The Wee Review
Content Advisory: BATSU! is not intended for young children. This experience contains flashing lights, haze, and simulated violence, including the use of a paintball gun. Do you dare to BATSU!?
