portrait (caricature)
Being good at drawing can score you points even at a group dating party, right? If you’re confident, go ahead and casually sketch a quick portrait to show off your skills.
Anyone can be your model, but drawing one of the participants in front of you is a great way to really showcase your ability.
Setting a time limit like “one minute” can make it even more fun.
However, since you want to leave a good impression, be careful with caricature-style exaggeration—it can be risky! Make sure your drawing doesn’t hurt anyone’s feelings or spoil the mood.
quick costume change
A mysterious quick-change performance where your outfit transforms completely in just a few seconds.
The key is to create magical moments with movements that match the rhythm and clever use of pauses.
Even those staring intently will feel compelled to applaud, instantly livening up the group date! By layering different outfits under your stage costume and incorporating cues so you can change with a pop at just the right moment, everyone’s eyes will sparkle and smiles will spread.
Show a little bit of magic and make your group date an even more fun time!

wotagei
Wotagei is a performance known for being done by fans at idol concerts.
Recently, videos of wotagei set to popular songs have been released, and it’s even become a staple party trick.
So if your company is holding a party or a social gathering, why not put on a wotagei performance? Even first-timers can make it look impressive with a bit of practice—perfect for a quick show.
If older attendees who may not be familiar with wotagei will be there, try choosing a song that was a revival hit or otherwise well-known to their generation.
One-Minute Challenge (as it feels)
The One-Minute Challenge: Use your internal clock to measure time and stop the stopwatch when you think a minute has passed! It’s simple and requires no practice, so it’s perfect as a quick party trick.
If you stop it at exactly one minute, it’ll definitely get everyone excited, but being close is good enough too.
If spending a whole minute in silence is tough, try chatting while you do it.
In this example, they’re reciting “Jugemu” as they go.
Inviting someone to compete and turning it into a game can really liven things up!
line dance
When people think of line dance, they often assume it’s challenging unless you have experience in ballet or jazz dance.
However, if you use props like these, you won’t feel pushed to your physical limits, and it’s convenient because you can even practice remotely.
By using books and chairs—raising and lowering the book or changing its orientation—you can get the maximum effect, and coordinating outfits creates a sense of unity.
Choosing something simple like all black, which most people already own, can also lower the barrier to preparing.
parody song
For women who feel a bit embarrassed about doing a party trick, I recommend parody songs.
If you plan ahead and sing with a group, it should help reduce the embarrassment.
In this video, they use the popular song “Otona Blue” to make a funny parody about the differences between introverts and extroverts.
With easy entry points like wearing school-uniform cosplay, you’re less likely to mess up.
In the workplace, it might be good to create a unique parody song about clients or departments—as long as it doesn’t make anyone uncomfortable.
Give it a try!
Momotaro
I think many people are familiar with the folktale Momotaro.
Wednesday Campanella sings about that folktale while adding their own perspective.
There are many lyrics that make you think, “That’s so true!” and they’ll make you laugh.
Just being able to sing this song without stumbling could be a performance in itself.
It would also be fun to dress up and dance to it at a wedding reception.
With its catchy rhythm, it’s sure to get everyone excited!
