“Yukata Cowboy” is a cross-cultural sketch comedy series, centered around a culturally hybrid character - half American, half Japanese. With a cowboy hat, boots, lasso, Japanese "yukata" (casual summer garment) and rapid-firing tongue, he drifts across different cultures in the U.S., Japan and Europe. Everywhere he goes, he tries to fit in, but the more he fits in, the more he gets mistaken for someone else…His experiences offer insights into the daily lives in different countries, focusing on aspects of everyday life across the globe, such as elevators, bowing, house guests, dining alone, riding trains or attending parades. These observations translate into something more universal, similar to Jerry Seinfeld’s stories about lost socks and dryers.
