This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2026 season. This season is now over.

Brunette, brown-eyed and striking Japanese woman Yuki holds a cordless microphone in her left hand with her red nails. She wears natural make-up and a fitted black long-sleeved top with sheer black sleeves, accessorised by a silver chain around her neck, with her hair mostly pulled back with a little left loosely framing her face. Her body is turned away from the camera but she's looking into it over her right shoulder.

YUKI NIVEZ (JPN): Active Bitch Face

A dangerously funny and unapologetically dark hour of razor-sharp stand-up from Tokyo’s deadpan queen of comedy.

When you’re Japanese, female, and chronically misunderstood... why not weaponize it? Smart, fearless, and wickedly funny, Yuki Nivez bites back - turning the absurdity of society into laughter and defiance into charm. With unnerving calm and a playful take on everyday life, Yuki flips every cliché, micro-aggression, and “you should smile more” into pure comedic destruction.

With hilarious sold-out shows from Tokyo to Sydney, here's your chance to find out what goes on behind the mask.

Come for the laughs, stay for the afterburn - it's guaranteed to be a riot!

"Tokyo’s queen of deadpan didn’t come to take prisoners. Funny, ferocious... an hour well worth catching" CityHub (AU)
