Bon odori - take 2
Fireworks were finally too much for the poor overworked SL Opera site server! The SIM lasted until the fireworks then it crashed again. So we managed to get our show done except for the last little bit. HP chan on the taiko drum was awesome. Arms thrashing away at speed for an hour! See the montage pic. About a dozen in the show from Little Yoshiwara and Hosoi. Grrrr, the yukata bought for the show had a shape in the list of parts so I looked awful!!! masumi san's skirt did not rez for the whole hour, grrrrr. Larkworthy san was there again and was going to video the experience. Fingers crossed the lag was not bad enough to spoil the party...

Montage from the kabuki play
Montargetastic! Spent a few moments sticking together a few snaps from the excellent video from Larkworthy san.
Ideas meeting for our ochaya
Performances for the ochaya were on the agenda today for a group meeting to discuss new ideas. A good turn out and some new ideas. Watch out for exciting new things coming to the ochaya soon...
Stunning video available from our kabuki play
Larkworthy Antfarm shot this amazing video at our Kabuki show last Saturday on the occasion of the Second Pride festival.
"Musume Dojoji" was adapted to SL by Rimpoche Kiama & performed by the Yoshiwara Kabuki group known fully as the Ichimura-za Kabuki Group.
Musume Dojoji is a famous Kabuki drama. The young maid falls in love with a priest who resists her advances. She grows enraged and dances in a frenzy until her anger melts the temple bell and her fire destroys the man she loves.
Take a peek here:

Thank you very much to Larkworthy for this beautiful work.
