A Guide to join the RHPS in Japan !

Tokyo | Osaka | others


Tokyo:

We lost home again!! The regular frankenstein place, Cine la sept had been closed late Jan.2004. We are still looking for next movie house to do the time warp again...

Even now, we have no place to do the Time Worp again. However, our Halloween Special Show will come at Kawasaki Cine-citta late October 2006 ! Visit our site again and again to check the update.

We finally got another home theater -- Cine la sept. It's an art-oriented movie theater with 160 seats and a small stage (too small for any active performance). Very good location, urban atmosphere, and excellent interior.

location: Yurakucho
date/time: every month's 2nd Tuesday (ex. 8 Jan.) 21:00 - 22:50
charge: 1500 yen at box office

[Q] How can I get to the theater?
[A] Take JR yamanote-line train and get off at JR Yurakucho (sounds like "You Luck Chow"). Go out from Chuo gate(Central gate) and turn 2nd right. Then you can see the entrance. Very near from the station. If you wish to use subway, take Yurakucyo-line, get off Yurakucyo station, and go out from exit A7. You can see a map here but, it's in Japanese.

[Q] When the door opens?
[A] The door opens at 20:30. But you don't need to come very early. Our audience is still small. Many good seats are available after door opened.

[Q] Can I use props?
[A] Some. Confetti, newspapers, pen lights, toilet papers are welcomed. Don't use any fire, water, and something makes the house dirty. After use, please pick up trashes near by you. Thanks.

[Q] Can I come in costume?
[A] Do it!!! However, there is no room for dressing at the theater. Prepare it somewhere else. Sorry, there is no costume discount.

[Q] Can I be a cast instantly?
[A] Be it!!! Indeed, we have very loose rule on who can perform which cast -- just do it. We know most RH casts don't allow a stranger to play any role without agreement beforehand. Our cast are arranged by our cast director, but any instant cast will be welcomed. If you have some experience of RH performing, don't hesitate to join in our show.

[Q] Can I shout naughty lines?
[A] Do it!!! It's very important part of audience participation. We have Japanese original lines and traditional English lines, as such "Hey Riff Show Us Your Mother!."

[Q] Do you have any pre-show?
[A] We have short pre-show featuring our 3 girls unit "Boings", it means "Big Tits."
