Gamarjobat

Joined Andreas and a friend of his, Jonas, at Shinagawa station, actually I joined Andreas already at 7F at the office. From Shinagawa station we took bus number 5 to the Ginga Theatre where we met Chie.

We were going to watch Gamarjobat and their G10 show. G10 because it is their tenths anniversary. Gamarjobat shows are difficult to explain but a mix of silent comedy, street show, and theatre without words but with full body control.

They are always hilariously fun. And this show was no exception. Jonas got a yellow card because he did not catch what he was asked to do 😀

Before and the show Jonas, Andreas, Chie and I had dinner at an Irish pub just outside the theatre. We had dinner again after the show at the same pub. But now with Non and Ryo too.



At 10 pm we decided to return to Meguro, where we stopped at Andreas favorite bar. We stayed there until it was way past my bedtime.

Left office early. Already at 4 pm. I met Chie in Shinagawa station. Together we went to the New National Theatre where we found a corner by ourself to have picnic.

Maybe you already realized that the picnic was not the main reason for going to the New National Theatre. We went there to watch the 10th Anniversary show of Gamarjobat with Club Leo.


Gamarjobat

1.5-2 hours of laughing. No need to go to the gym for abs training this weekend. It’s kind of difficult to describe Gamarjobat and the guest performers they had today. You have to watch them. But it is kind of silent comedy, or rather comedy without words because it is not really silent. Especially not tonight with their two guests that built their whole performance on sound.

After the show we all went to ChakaChaka in Shinjuku area to have dinner. We had various dishes and talked mostly about Non’s work colleague that new she wanted to go to the Gamarjobat show but arranged so that Non could not leave her office until already an hour into the show. So she missed it.

Anyway, we will have a new chance to see Gamarjobat in February. But not the 10th Anniversary show. Then it is the Japan Tour show. The rumor is that they will do a special edition of the “Boxer” 🙂 A great performance based on Rocky.
