CHALLENGE

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2025

CHALLENGE is a non-verbal comedy from Japan about an ordinary office worker who wants to change his boring, negative life. Inspired by love, he takes on a series of wild and funny CHALLENGE to become a better version of himself and win the heart of his crush. The show features Akira Ishida's unique comic dance, GABEZ’s expressive mime, and dynamic sword fighting, creating a visually exciting and energetic performance. This heartwarming and hilarious story transcends language and is perfect for audiences of all ages. After a five-star run last year, CHALLENGE returns to the Fringe stronger than ever.
