Fun and exciting performances/acts recommended for women (11–20)
recorder
How about trying a party trick using the recorder that most people learned in elementary school? In school, you usually play children’s songs, which have fewer notes and seem like anyone could play them with a bit of practice.
So if you pull out a recorder at a party, many people will probably assume you’re going to play that kind of tune.
Why not turn that expectation on its head and perform a popular song that’s rarely played on the recorder? At the party, people will first be puzzled—what song is this?—and the moment they recognize it, the room will erupt with excitement.
papercutting
Here’s an introduction to “kamigiri,” a performance you can do with just paper and scissors.
This is truly a skill-based art, so it takes practice, but if you can perform it, it’s sure to make you stand out at any party.
Simply put, you present improvised paper-cut art while talking.
What you say is up to you, but it’s good to touch on the theme—what you’re expressing.
Watching hands move decisively without any preliminary sketch makes you excited, wondering what it will become.
Once you’ve chosen a theme, start by drawing a rough outline at first and practice so you can cut smoothly.

Isn’t this the song that everyone’s heard at least once and that’s easy to dance to and sing along with? It would also be cute to prepare outfits like school uniforms.
Even just coordinating the clothing colors among the people performing together, or adding sparkly ties, should be enough to create the right vibe.
There are plenty of choreography tutorial videos as well, so be sure to look them up.
Eyelash Toothpick Challenge
As a quirky party trick that gets everyone smiling at banquets or drinking parties, the “Eyelash Toothpick Challenge” is super fun.
Balance a toothpick directly on your own eyelashes or gently on false lashes, and compete to see who can keep it from falling the longest! It’s a light, slightly nerve‑racking game that sparks laughter.
Perfect for livening things up—cheer each other on with a friendly “You’ve got this!” and the mood will naturally warm up.
The best tip: relax and just have fun!
Magic using a smartphone
A heart-pounding magic trick that lets you know someone’s smartphone passcode.
You can use it as a magic performance, but it’s also a handy technique if you secretly want to find out a family member’s or partner’s passcode.
It uses the iPhone’s calculator: first, have the person enter their passcode so the performer can’t see it, then have them add a random four-digit number.
After that, by pressing the minus button and then the equals button, you can immediately see the originally entered number—taking advantage of how the calculator works.
Give someone a nickname on the fly
How about a little game where you quickly give people nicknames that capture their traits and vibe, with a generous dash of humor? For example, someone who wears glasses and is very knowledgeable could be called something whimsically cute like “Professor Specs.” Dreaming up slightly surreal yet endearing names is sure to spark laughter.
The key is to keep it gentle and funny so it doesn’t come off as rude.
If everyone takes turns and asks, “What’s the next nickname?” you’ll get the conversation flowing naturally and help everyone warm up to each other at any gathering.

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!
