Japanese Comedian Zenjiro, one half of the Sushi Brothers, will be performing alongside NEC's new robot, Papero.
Papero, plays the English teacher and Zenjiro a student in a sketch that pokes fun at English-language teaching in Japan.
Papero is a prototype "personal robot" designed to communicate with humans and is the first robot with Japanese-English translation capability.
