comment
- Kondo-
In order to face this work, “feeling shaken off” and “useless physical strength” is required. Both are lacking these days! While thinking
I want to do it because there is no reason not to dance! I think. I hope you can meet “my lover” purely and correctly even though you are of a reasonable age.
Say “It’s okay!” Mr. Ikuyo.
-Ikuyo Kuroda-
It’s a piece that I created with nearly 20 years ago, and it’s a piece that I love so much that I always want to dance to it. There is also a phenomenon that this work makes me “comfortable” just because I didn’t do it properly. I’m really looking forward to the re-performance after a long time, but I’m a little shy now that we’ve become two middle-aged people. However, please allow me to be aegyo here, and let the pink dress flutter all the way to the other side of “comfort,” right? Mr. .
