What to do and see in Shibuya / Harajuku / Ebisu, Kanto: The Best Performances

September 29, 2021 Randal Brittian

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

This is a lovely one hour show featuring traditional Japanese instruments and music. The setting is intimate so that you can hear and see the performers up close. The show features the koto, shamisen, Taiko drums and the Shakuhachi flute, plus a bilingual ( English/Japanese)commentary between performances to explain the instruments, how they are played and certain sound effects are achieved, and the origins of the music. The performances are delicate and ethereal. Afterwards you are in a great neighbourhood for dining out and close to the subway for getting home. A perfect evening.

Pirates of Tokyo Bay

Established in 2010, The Pirates of Tokyo Bay are Tokyo's only improv comedy group performing regularly in English and Japanese. There's no better way to experience the heart and soul of a city than laughing with the locals. So definitely make some time to check out one of their monthly shows in Ebisu, Tokyo. Be sure to check their website or Peatix for show dates, event info, special discounts and updates!
