Check the Colorful Robot Parade!!

Look at these robot faces!! So cute, isn't it?
The creater of these robots are children among audience!
These robot are made from corrugated cardboard & Japanese O・RI・GA・MI(colorful paper).

These expression are indivisual & various♪♪♪
Long hair, Japanese SA・MU・RA・I, wearing eye glasses and so on...
Every robot are fantastic & beautiful!

Children who made a robot can take a parade as wearing robot face of corrugated cardboard,with clown!!
This project was planned by volunteer group people who support this street performance festival.

This street performance festival has been held 17 times,already.(It's amazing!)
The appreciate ability toward street performance by audience became higher and higher,on a year by a year.
As a result, children can express their imagination & dream figures thanks to various artists & their parents.

These children surely make this festival grow next stage up, I feel.

Your clapping gives us energy! / Duo Flash

This is Duo Flash's second time performing in Japan. Last time,they performed at the Yoshimoto Theater in Osaka.

I inteviewed them after their second show on November 2nd.
Like true professionals, they made their grueling act look easy.
They twirled so many times so quickly!
According to them, in a single show they usually twirl themselves 20 to 25 times and do not get dizzy.

They both started doing gymnstics at the age of 5.
When they were 15 and 16 years old, they entered a circus school.
Since 1995 they have been performing professionally.

Acting on the recommendation of a teacher at their circus school, they became partners.
When asked "How did you choose what music you use?", they replied,"We choose music that gets the audience to clap. That gives us energy. We love the audience and the atmosphere! It's always fun to perform for a friendly audience!"
The more audience enjoy their show, the better their show will be.

We also asked "What advice would you give to somebody who wants to try to do an acrobatic show like you do?"
They answered "If you really want to be like us, you had better start very young.
Probably at least at the age of 4 or 5, and you better practice for 2 or 3 hours everyday! If you just want to jump, you can start right now!"

四方の鉄棒で繰り広げられる台詞のない物語／ロカシュコフ トゥループ

四方で囲まれた鉄棒（280cm）でパフォーマンスする「ロカシュコフ トゥループ」。
男女4人でパフォーマンスをやるはずだったが、1人が足を怪我したため3人でのパフォーマンスとなった。


音楽にあわせて、台詞の代わりに鉄棒を使い、物語は繰り広げられる。
この物語のテーマは「FriendShip」といっている。



鉄棒を使って、飛んだり、その上に立ったり……
どれもお客さんを驚かせるパフォーマンスだった。


このパフォーマンスで難しいものは？と訊いてみると、
「全部」とリーダーは答えてくれた。
確かに、何分も鉄棒でパフォーマンスをすることは難しいことだろう。
普通の人なら1分もしないでこの鉄棒から落ちてしまうだろう。
しかし、彼らは普通の人ができないようなことをお客さんの前でやっている。



そんな彼らのパフォーマンスは見る価値があるだろう。
驚くこと間違いなしの「ロカシュコフ トゥループ」のパフォーマンス。
ぜひ、足を運んでみては？
