Studio Kaiju is an American performance entertainment troupe based in Boston, Massachusetts created by Rand Borden and David Borden.

In-jokes are plentiful and are aimed towards fans of professional wrestling (especially Lucha libre Mexican wrestling), superhero comic books and Japanese popular culture. Many of the names of the characters are in mock-Spanish or mock-Japanese, an
