It’s Gen X vs. Gen Y in this offbeat comedy of 21st century manners, that follows the romantic adventures of employees in a Tokyo manga café. A panorama, by one of Japan’s cutting-edge storytellers, of young workers adrift amidst economic turbulence and social change.

Reviews of Enjoy: 

“Dan Rothenberg’s pitch-perfect direction teases out performances that capture the way hipsters talk in Williamsburg, as well as in Tokyo.”
–The New York Times

“Anime meets anomie in this brilliantly written, staged, and performed ensemble piece, which reveals in hyper-real language and choreographic clarity the inner workings of Japan’s ‘lost generation.”
–Theatre Is Easy

“It’s a treat! Toshiki Okada’s play, about part-time workers at a Tokyo manga café, is a delightful study in frustration.”
–The New Yorker
