Comedy over the culture/ Rob Torres

Rob Torres, with charming red cap, has worked in among 43 countries in the world. Wherever he perform, audience laugh similarly. Needless to say, in Shizuoka.
He changes performance according to the culture he stands. For examples, in Europe or USA they don't take off their shoes but in Japan they do. Then, in Japan, he cuts out a process of "making room" on the stage. He had been in Japan for some years, so he knows well about Japanese.
And however it is changed, his comedy can make anyone laughing by his innocence and adorable act.
He may think audience as someone to play with? He seems to be good spirits anytime. That reminds me of my childhood.
