      "Dazzling audiences with live paper-cutting! Watch as requested subjects are brought to life from a single sheet of paper in this incredible improvisational performance."

      Kamikiri is a traditional Japanese performing art developed in yose theatres, combining technical skill with improvisation and audience engagement. Using only paper and scissors, it reveals the creativity and cultural sensibilities of Japan. Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience a kamikiri artist visiting from Japan in person. Witness the breathtaking speed and precision of Master Rakuichi. A rare opportunity to experience 400 years of Japanese tradition in New Zealand!

       

      The Performance will be followed by a post-event gathering from 5.30pm to 6.30pm.
