Hidden Talents to Liven Up Parties: Recommended Performances and Acts for Women [2026] (21–30)
tongue twister
For women who are unsure what to do at a drinking party or wedding reception: tongue twisters are a fun, worry-free option for entertainment, even if you’re not good at party tricks or impressions.
There’s a wide variety—from classic ones that combine words you don’t normally use to longer sentences that are easier to tackle if you prepare in advance.
Plus, you don’t need any special props, and you can try them easily anywhere—that’s the appeal.
They’re also great for lively group games where you compete for the fastest time! And the laughs that come from tripping up or misspeaking will make things even more exciting.
Parody karaoke
I’m going to perform a parody song at karaoke.
You can find tons of parody songs by searching, so I think it’s best to pick one that fits the situation.
There’s everything from comedic to moving ones.
Of course, you can also write your own parody and perform it!
Caricatures on the spot
If you have a knack for drawing, try sketching someone’s portrait on the spot.
Even if you don’t, the lack of skill can stand out and actually make it funny, so it might still be a good idea.
The person being drawn, the person drawing, and the onlookers can all enjoy it.
Prepare a larger sketchbook so it’s easy to see.
Give the finished portrait to the person you drew as a gift.
wotagei
Haven’t you seen people dancing with glow sticks at idol concerts and similar venues? That dance is commonly called “wotagei.” It’s often associated with men, but it looks really cool when women do it, too! You don’t need a group—it’s something you can do solo.
It looks especially striking in the dark, where the glow sticks really stand out.
a cappella
If a few people are going to perform, how about showcasing a song a cappella? Of course, you can do it solo, but if you have several people, you can sing in chorus and harmonize, making it a more impressive a cappella performance.
A cappella featuring the uniquely high range of women would be wonderful, I think.
Makeup for an anime face
Haven’t you ever, as a woman, wanted to be the heroine of a shoujo manga or anime at least once? Let’s make it happen as a little performance.
Now, your face is the canvas.
Go ahead and draw sparkling eyes that look about five times bigger than your usual ones.
When you’re done, you’ll probably burst out laughing at the you in the mirror who isn’t you.
Karate-style performance
Let us introduce a unique performance called “Music Karate.” At first glance, a seemingly reserved woman delivers powerful karate techniques in sync with the rhythm—an entertaining spectacle that delights both the eyes and ears and is sure to amaze everyone around! Even beginners to martial arts can master it to a solid level with practice.
What’s more, practicing Music Karate might help you discover a new hobby.
Why not energize the venue with this rhythmic, dynamic performance?
