SHOSHINZ
A new kind of mad performance art!
Two delightful, musical maids will dazzle you with their bizarre, hilarious
stage antics.
"SHOSHINZ" is anglicized Japanese for "shy, timid people," but SHOSHINZ are
maids who are subservient to nothing and no one.
These two maids never speak any words, but they sing and dance and make a
variety of sounds with their bodies.
They can communicate deeply with each other with their sounds and voices
and hearts.
Watching them, your imagination will soar, and will remember what your most
precious treasure is.
Are you ready?
SHOSHINZ, consisting of Yanomi and Kuronatsu, started
performing in 2005. Both women also have careers as
theater actresses in Japan.
Yanomi has belonged to the Ryuzanji Company, a troupe
which has created a wide variety of theater works that
they have performed both inside Japan and outside: in
Canada, Russia, Iran, and many Asian countries.
Kuronatsu has belonged to Theater Echo which is one of
the most famous comedy theater companies in Japan with
over 50 years of history.
They took all of their combined experience and formed
SHOSHINZ, giving their very first performances in a
small bar in Tokyo. With a strong desire to cross over
genres, they have created a fearless mix of antics and
a truly unique show. They perform tirelessly at bars,
live music venues, club events, parties, schools,
theaters, and also on the streets.
Regardless of age or sex or nationality, the audience
is always surprised and delighted to watch their show.
And most people come away from it unable to find words
to describe exactly what they have seen!
SHOSHINZ performed at The Montreal Fringe Festival
2007 and 2008, where many of their shows were standing-room
only.
And they succeeded their first US tour in 2009 being a huge hit in Portland,
Seattle, Bellingham, Sacramento, San Francisco, Nevada City, and
Los Angeles.
