Sorry I haven't been able to post in a few weeks. However, I would like to tell you about the Daidogei World Cup in Shizuoka city. It is an event held in Shizuoka every year to promote performance art and street performers. There are many crazy things happening over the four days that the event is held. I attended only one day but I got to see a lot.
This first act I watched was this French couple who were doing acrobatics on roller-skates. It actually made me nervous watching them because I thought she would fall, but it all went well. They were probably one of my favourite acts.
Then I watched this guy in the crazy costume walk on a tight rope while doing tricks. His partner also did tricks lots of hula hoops and one giant hoop but unfortunately there is a problem uploading her video.
The last event I watched was these two brothers who I enjoyed a lot. They were very playful with the audience and had a lot of charisma. Most of their tricks were balancing one another and acrobatics, but they also had a storyline to their act. They played the rolls of bank robbers who'd fallen out after their robbery. Apparently they won last year.
