Matsuri
The number one musical production in Japan is now at the Sahara Hotel & Casino. The stage show features Olympic medalists and world-class athletes performing a combination of acrobatics, dance, stunts and athletics set to high energy music. Matsuri mixes elements of Japanese culture to create a truly original show that is completely unique to this side of the globe. With more than 18 acts; Matsuri incorporates extreme sports, gymnastics, comedic routines and vibrantly colored costumes throughout the show. Japanese earth and foot drum dances are blended into the show and are performed by tapping, clapping and stomping to create heart-pounding rhythms.
Matsuri creator and famed Japanese producer Ushio Higuchi originally created a musical sports variety program for Japanese television called "Kinniku-banzuke." The show was such a success that Higuchi collaborated with world-renowned musical director Ryoji Nakamura to develop a live stage production based on his hit television show.
The stage production, which is called Muscle Musical in Japan, opened in 2001 and quickly became a huge attraction in Japan.
Within a few years, Muscle Musical was the first stage production to have a permanent theater built specifically for the show and it continues to play to sold-out audiences each year.
