From millions of views across TikTok, IG, YouTube, and to her sold-out treks, the world can’t get enough of Atsuko Okatsuka! 

THE RISE OF ‘THE INTRUDER’

Born in Taiwan to a Taiwanese mother and Japanese father, she spent much of her early childhood in Japan. Little did she know, she would end up kidnapped by her maternal grandmother, and taken to her mother in Los Angeles. During her childhood, she watched several comedians—including Margaret Cho, Lucille Ball, Charlie Chaplin, and more. In community college, she found her love and interest in comedy and perfoming on stage.

“I was never really good at school, but I always performed in some aspect throughout my life... whether it's dancing, cheerleading, theatre,” she told NPR. She realized that making people laugh made her feel really good. She began her full-on career in comedy by performing around humble clubs in Los Angeles. 

By 2021, she marked her late-night show debut on the The Late Late Show with James Corden, praised for her amazing ability to stir a crowd, winning everyone's hearts with her performance. From then on, she guested on more TV programs and late-night shows, becoming named as one of Variety’s “Top 10 Comics to Watch” in 2022. Later that year, her debut stand-up special, “The Intruder,” premiered on HBO and was highly raved by fans & critics, with The New York Times naming it the Best Debut of 2022. Since then, she’s been out and about, entertaining people with her truest self. In June of 2025, she released her second stand-up special “Father” via Hulu. 

As she keeps the FULL GROWN TOUR up and running, all you gotta do is rush to get your hands on tickets ‘cause fans have been snatching them all up. She’s been doing this tour for years now, and it’s all because the world can’t get enough of her stand-up comedy-gold antics.
