If you need any more evidence of the level of talent Tituss Burgess' poses, look no further than the Geisha song he sings as part of his one-man show about one of his past lives, a Geisha named Murasaki. The unruly crowd ready to riot over the cultural appropriation is silenced because of how beautiful and sincere the performance is, which is really the only way to play this scene and get away with it, even on a show as absurdist as Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
Sample lyrics: "How can I be happy even when Bon Festival is here? I don't have nice clothes or a sash to wear."
