現Utsutsu Party vol.1 ~Experience of Japanese princess and Samurai~
We offered the experience you cannot enjoy any other way after the show stage during 現 ‘Utsutsu’party.
- Japanese princess experience
Guests selected one of these uchikake kimonos, special wigs and props.
Then they were transformed into a Japanese princess in 3 minutes.
It is not only for girls but also for boys. And it was actually very popular for boys…hehe! ↓
By the way, the picture was painted by Mrs.Hiro Maderna.
It was really beautiful scenery, isn’t it?
Thank you very much for your corporation Hiro-san!
- Samurai experience and photo shooting with props
It got men’s attention. Since we had samurai club show stage before this experience time. Many guests tried to hold katana sword and posed while smiling. Members of Samurai club taught how to handle the sword and pose like a samurai. Don’t worry!

現Utsutsu Party vol.1 ~Samurai Club~
The party really came alive after the dancing stage by Kimono Dreamers.
The next program was Samurai club’s performance!
We study the movement and way of thinking of samurai. We are learning the wisdom of ancient Japanese people.
The representative of the Saumrai club, Mr. Yasunari Kondo, teaches how to use swords and movements used in fight scenes.
The members gave a demonstration of their swords performance.
They performed the basic movement called ‘永字八法Eiji-happo’ on the stage.
Women members wore men’s hakama to give the sword performance. It is really cool, isn’t it?

Utsutsu 現 Party vol.1 !
On June 20th, 2015. We held the 現~Utsutsu~ party vol.1 at Dream store, Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Since we had just established the Limited Liability Company on June4th, 2015. It was formally presented debutante of the Tsutahu Project LLC.
87 people came together at the party. Many guests were gorgeously dressed up with kimono.
We became full of happiness and gratitude.
We appreciate your continuous support. Thank you so much!
In addition, special thanks to Mr. Fukahori for taking beautiful pictures!
The party started from a welcome dance by kimono dreamers!
There were many characters like Miko, Queen, Oiran and so on…
First of all, on behalf of the company Mr. Yasunari Kondo extended his greetings.
We asked Mr. Fukuda who is the president of Fukufuku recycle kimono company propose a toast.
Kimono dreamers appeared on the stage one by one. All songs are very nostalgic and popular in Japan.
Yumi played ‘Miko’ as the first performer. The song was ‘Taisetsu na
Anata 大切なあなた’. She passed out written fortunes and prayed for guest’s happiness.
Sumire acted like a modern girl with the song of ‘Komacchau na 困っちゃうナ’. Her cute fashion catches the guests’ attention.
In contrast, Karin wore a cool hakama and danced ‘Yozakura oshichi 夜桜お七’. She showed both strength and weakness of a lady in love.
Mizuki danced Judy Ongg’s ‘Miserarete 見せられて’. She acted a woman who has an attractive smile and a coquettish behavior. She used eccentric fans for her props.
Botan danced to a tune of ‘Ran 乱’. She played a noble and beautiful Oiran with uchikake kimono. It is a remarkable thing that the kimono weighs approximately 10kg. She danced as if it were easy. (but I’m sure it is not!)
Kodemari is an actress. Therefore, she has an abundant ability of expression. She was just like a Japanese doll. The song was ‘Ningyo no Ie 人形の家’
Kikyo is the one who performed last!
She made all choreography for everyone’s dance.
She danced with a grace that surprised us all.
To be continued…
