This is K.-san, she makes everything better, and is a wonderful, wonderful person. |
The stage crew. These guys are awesome, and we are thankful for their help every year. |
They are building the "house" for the set of one of the dances. |
Backstage. Make-up, hair, prep for wigs - it all happens here. |
Some of the small props for the dances. |
Waiting to be dressed, M. and S., who did an amazing job. |
Little Y. and his mom is doing his make-up. She is a professional and has performed at the National Theatre in Japan. |
K. She performed a male role and did great. |
E., she had her hair done by O.-san rather than have to wear a wig. |
Getting the head cover on, it has to go on before the make up, and has to be tight to hold in the hair. |
Some more small props. |
I have no photos of the dances, because I am busy when they are dancing, and can't distract them from the side of the stage with a flash. I may ask K.-san for some photos because the costumes are really beautiful.
Otsukaresama!
