Jupiter Hall

Our kaiwa class gave us two tickets to go see a fall variety show at the local performance hall, Jupiter Hall. Fall variety show sounds kinda hokey, but it was really cool! There about 5 acts. Most were musical, but one featured dancing, while another was a short scene from a play. In general, not knowing what was being said didn't hinder our enjoyment, music being music and dancing being dancing. The show ended with an amazing taiko performance-- while I always like taiko, this really blew me away.

Before the show started, people were encouraged to sit in the "tea garden" and enjoy some matcha and mochi while getting a preview of the koto players. I love that powdered green tea!



And a nice plus to our attending the show-- we saw a lot of people from our neighborhood and the schools. Kinda made us feel like part of the community. Aaaww.
