Exciting Entertainment and Performances Recommended for Men (31–40)
flash mob dance
Flash mobs that bring unexpected emotion to proposals and parties are a tempting choice for entertainment.
Yamauchi from the comedy duo Kamaitachi pulled off a huge gag by attempting a flash mob all by himself at his partner Hamaie’s wedding.
We wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re very brave… Since it’s mainly dancing, it may require a longer practice period than other performances.
It’s reassuring if you have a few people with dance experience.
For company events, it might be fun to divide into teams—like a junior team and a veteran team—and perform that way!
Hilarious speech
Speeches are a staple at gatherings where many people come together, like weddings and birthday parties.
That’s why I suggest a laugh-out-loud speech.
This is where you deliver a speech that can steal the show with big laughs.
Try sharing funny stories about the guest of honor or your own embarrassing mishaps.
That said, telling a truly funny story can be tough.
In that case, it’s a good idea to build small gags into the speech itself.
For example, you could turn your written script into a scroll.
Ugly Face Championship
The “Bad Face Championship” is a game where participants compete to see who can make the best “bad face,” imagining they’ve just been arrested.
It’s enjoyed in all kinds of settings, like wedding after-parties and company year-end parties.
The comedy duo Chocolate Planet made it a hot topic by posting videos as a project on their YouTube channel! When participants go all out and show off their most villainous expressions, it really energizes the venue.
Decide on themes and judging criteria—like scary faces or funny faces—and offer a prize to the winner.
Your guests will get serious about crafting their best bad faces!
Basilisk Time
“Basilisk Time” that went viral on Twitter.
It’s a mashup that pairs the famous Koga Ninpō-chō song from pachinko with completely unrelated dance videos.
Since lots of users recognize the reference, it’s perfect for a performance.
CHOSHINJUKU
This is a sketch by Choshinjuku that made waves on the red carpet.
It’s recommended for group performances with 5–6 people.
It’s easy to adapt, and the routine itself doesn’t require advanced skills, so as long as you coordinate well in advance, you shouldn’t run into any problems.
Exciting Entertainment and Performances Recommended for Men (41–50)
withB
This is the “Career Woman” routine by Buruzon Chiemi with B.
Pull someone in on the spot to play Chiemi and have them do the “3.5 billion” call.
It works as an improvised bit, so it should be quite versatile.
Just make sure you have the BGM ready.
Sukumizu Detective
The idea is based on a video by the YouTuber ‘Kindan Boys’ where Ikkun patrols Osaka in a school swimsuit.
Given the outfit, I think it’ll be an almost guaranteed hit.
However, it’s questionable whether it will appeal to women, so caution is needed.
