One-Shot Gags That Go Over Well at Parties and Entertainment—Recommended for Women (11–20)
3 o’clock Heroine: “Common Tropes in Foreign TV Dramas”
3-ji no Heroine is a female comedy trio from the 7th generation.
How about performing their popular “foreign drama clichés” routine as entertainment at a party or drinking gathering? It recreates scenes that often appear in overseas TV dramas—the kind that make anyone who watches them chuckle.
It’s perfect for a group of women to do together, and if you dress and do your makeup to match the vibe, it’ll look great on stage too! Don’t be shy—go big and perform with energy and good rhythm!
Impersonation of Natsuko Yokozawa
Comedian Natsuko Yokozawa has gained popularity for her impressions that capture everyday scenes we tend to overlook.
Her expressive power and keen insight in sketches like her signature “Music Teacher” and “Slightly Annoying Woman” make anyone nod in recognition.
They’re great as easy one-shot gags you can use anywhere from big parties to small drinking gatherings.
However, bits that evoke a specific person present can lead to awkwardness later, so check who’s attending before deciding on your material.
Sing in a dialect
Singing in a dialect is a fun idea that warms everyone’s hearts and brings out smiles! Just adding a slightly different intonation or ending to your words instantly grabs the audience’s interest.
For example, try singing a song you know in the dialect of your hometown, or switch a popular song into a dialect—before you know it, people will be smiling and saying, “That dialect is so cute!” Dialects have a unique sound and warmth rooted in their regions, so simply singing in one can create a cozy atmosphere and make conversation flow more naturally—another reason it really livens things up.
It’s easy to try, so even if you feel a little shy, give it a go and have fun!
Bubble Dance
Thanks to the success of the Tomigaoka High School dance team and celebrities like Nora Hirano, the bubble-era craze has been reignited.
I heard the Tomigaoka dancers made use of items like bubble-era suits they found at their grandparents’ homes.
Those suits are a bit easier to get nowadays, too.
All that’s left is to practice the dance! The more people you have, the more impressive it will look.
Blow the audience away with razor-sharp moves!
Take off glasses without using your hands
A party trick that anyone who wears glasses can easily do is taking off your glasses without using your hands.
The rule is to remove them using only movements of your face and facial muscles—no hands at all.
Everyone bursts out laughing at the funny faces you make while trying to slide them off.
Even if you don’t wear glasses, you can borrow a pair from someone and enjoy it, so it’s an easy, accessible trick!
beatbox
Beatboxing is a fun party trick that women can easily show off too! Since you make rhythm using only your mouth, there’s no need for any physical stunts.
With practice, anyone can improve, so don’t worry if it feels a bit hard at first.
Perform it at a party or drinking gathering and it’s sure to hype things up! Using a mic at karaoke makes it even more powerful.
Even without a backing track, you can put on a solid performance using just your voice.
For larger groups, it’s also great to split parts and perform together.

Bubble-era gag in the style of Nora Hirano
How about recreating the look of a woman from the bubble era, which is also one of Nora Hirano’s signature characters? People who remember that time will find parts they can relate to, and those who don’t can enjoy it as a fresh, different culture.
It’s important to faithfully reproduce the makeup and items that were popular back then while exaggerating the gestures to make it fun to watch.
Since it was also the era when trendy dramas were in vogue, dropping the names of actors who appeared in those shows into your conversations could help enhance the atmosphere even more.
