SONESS STEVENS
Comedian / Emcee / Voice Artist / TED Speaker
Soness Stevens is a Tokyo-based, American, stand-up comedian, voice artist, emcee, and TED speaker. Her stories on social issues bring laughter during the show stage, which grows into conversation on the train ride home.
You may know her as the official English voice of Hello Kitty. Her varied voices have won awards from Tokyo to Cannes International Festival. Soness has hundreds of voices in her head. Her therapist calls it multiple personality disorder. She calls it work.
Raised in privilege, with a solid roof over her head and four wheels under her feet (a Volkswagen Dasher hatchback) Soness brings hilarity to growing up homeless, mental illness, and surviving in Japan.
Whether she’s talking about family, society or the restrictions each brings, her comments on life benefit us all. When life gives you lemons, make jokes.
