JAPAN RESTART
We are a group of artists coming together to do what we can for Japan. We can’t rebuild buildings, we can’t mend bones, and we can’t throw onigiri (rice balls) across the ocean. We can use our art to raise money and encourage people to help.
Our internationally renowned cast of musicians, dancers and performers volunteered to create this once in a lifetime benefit concert for the Northern Japan Earthquake Relief Fund. This concert will be Ustreamed to Japan and beyond.
Concert produced by Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival, Crosswater Media and Flytrap Studio.
