Opening Performance at Disco Twin Star Kagurazaka

Overview

In 1992 Twin Star, a new disco aimed at adults, opened in Kagurazaka. For the opening night, Byakko-sha’s ART BODIC performed a special live show, which included a geisha performance and a kinpun [gold powder/body paint] show. ART BODIC was Byakko-sha's "takeout" performance group, operating alongside their main productions. It "delivered" Body and Art to a wide range of events, from weddings and birthday parties to concerts and TV commercials. The group aimed to create a "more thrilling performance spectacle" that transcended the stereotypical boundaries of butoh.
