First Time Street Performance! Patrik Cottet-Moine

Patrick's performance started with the clapping of the audience.

He expresses daily life through modern and new pantomime. His
funny facial expressions and 'vocal percussion' evoke lots of laughs.

Street performance is his first experience as he usually performs
inside the theater. Thanks to the encouragement from the audience,
he performed well despite the rain.

Please pay attention to his BEAUTIFUL legs especially when he's
wearing tennis costume!!!

Sushi and Okonomiyaki which he ate last night are his favorite
Japanese foods;-)

Message from Patrick: "I LOVE SHIZUOKA!!"

Thank you.

Beyond The Limit of Human Body (China National Acrobatic Troupe)

At first, it is very hard to understand what is going on in front of us.
China National Acrobatic Troupe (CNAT)- their performance is the
mixture of balance and movement, which is far beyond our
imagination.

It was rainy today, but about half an hour before their performance,
the audience already became bigger, bigger, and even bigger!
Two women sitting in front smiled and said,"We've have been
looking forward to seeing this performance so much.

I think this is the only chance we can freely see the professional
Chinese Acrobat."

When two cute skinny girls and four masculine guys appeared and
began warming up behind the stage, the audience' eyes were
rivetted to their movement already!

Once the performance began, everybody got silent.
The only things could be heard was a beautiful Chinese music and...
sigh.

It was so incredible that the audience sometimes forgot to applause.
The hands, legs, head and fingers of the performers are bent freely,
as if every parts of their body have spirits each.

The performance is brilliant, and the performers are miracle.
The audience were led to a dream world of CNAT.
