Two women kneel to one side of the stage in front of what appears to be an ancient painting of a pine tree. A third enters from the opposite side, dressed in a beautiful kimono and makeup similar to that of a geisha. The kneeling duo begins to individually sing and play the shamisen<\/em>, a traditional stringed instrument. The singing is very rhythmical and deeper than you might expect, a cross between singing and chanting. The dancing matches the music with rhythmical, careful movements, like a series of poses connected by smooth footwork and flowing sleeves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But something is different about this performance. I\u2019m sitting right by the stage, with a glass of wine in front of me, and to my right is a luxurious bar. It’s not your typical setting for this performance, for sure. That is because this is not a typical Japanese performance. This is Suigian, a lounge<\/strong> where signature cocktails <\/strong>are served alongside traditional Japanese dance and music.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
