Performance at Maiko Theater

Maiko Kikushino greeting guests

No matter the holidays, Kyoto Kagai continues to hold events. Last Sunday was no exception, as Geiko and Maiko of Hanafusa okiya performed for visitors at the Maiko Theater. "We'd like to encourage people to discover and learn about the life of Second life Geiko and Maiko san by meeting Hanafusa okiya members. As in RL, SL Karyukai is quite closed society, that is why we have decided to hold events, such as this, to promote and let guests feel free to ask questions, which they had but were shy to ask Geiko or Maiko. Either hairtyle or kimono, years of study or troubles of being SL Geiko - we will be happy to answer" - said Geiko Kikutsuru.
Maiko Kikushino gracefully greeted guests and led them towards the seats where her older sisters prepared for the performance behind the curtain.
When all guests and visitors were seated, she joined her neesan and the performance began. Two dances were performed - both choreographer and written by Geiko Kikumaru.
After Geiko and Maiko finished performing, they sat on the stage and waited excitedly for the questions about their life and careers.
