This live-stream production was one in August 6th, 2021, and later on the archive-stream continued until September 6th.
It's a story of a father who had to leave this world and his daughter behind because of the a-bomb, and a daughter who forges on with the memories of her father. I will weave this story with my trusted friends and my father I admire so much.

Yuriko Miyake
began studying jazz and modern dance at the age of nine with the Ōtake Jazz Dance Club and soon appeared as a main cast member in numerous stage productions. At thirteen, she started ballet training as well as classical vocal lessons. By fourteen, she was attending a musical theater school, where she starred in productions such as Aladdin (main cast), The Wizard of Oz (as the Scarecrow), and Peter Pan (as Peter Pan), earning high acclaim for her performances. At fifteen, she expanded her repertoire by taking up hip-hop.
Determined to pursue dance more deeply, she enrolled at Shenandoah University in the United States. While there, she was selected for the touring dance team, performing across New York, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, as well as internationally in Canada and Taiwan. She also worked as a professional dancer with the Flying Dance Company, touring successfully in Virginia and Missouri. Expanding her artistic range, she studied Argentine tango, African dance, and capoeira. Her original choreographies consistently received high praise from her instructors and were performed on formal stages.
Yuriko participated in the American Dance Festival—renowned as the largest in the U.S.—where she was selected through audition from over 400 dancers worldwide to perform. Upon graduation, she was honored as an outstanding student and received an award recognizing her exceptional artistry and technique.
After graduation, she moved to New York, where she has continued to perform extensively. As a solo artist, she has held independent concerts not only in New York but also in Japan, including triumphant return performances in Hiroshima and Fukuoka. That same year, she made her silver screen debut in director Inori Eiga’s feature film Waggen Oggen: City of Women.
The following year, she was cast as the only Japanese performer in the London and Japan runs of Whole Hog Theatre’s stage adaptation of Hayao Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke—the first-ever officially licensed stage production of the film. She also wrote and composed the insert song for her solo musical, marking her CD solo debut, and provided both music and narration for a Paris Miki commercial.
Her narration work includes Yoshitaka Ōsawa’s documentary 8 DAYS TRIP. She also starred in Takashi Horie’s short film Ordinary Days and appeared in Corey Brummer’s action short film ONIKA.
Currently based in New York, Yuriko Miyake is active as a dancer, singer, actress, choreographer, playwright, model, narrator, and MC. Guided by her motto—“Laughter and tears are essential to life”—she continues to create works that embody this spirit.
三 宅 由 利 子 9歳で大竹ジャズダンス同好会にてジャズダンス・モダンダンスを始めて以来、数々の舞台でメインキャストを務める。13歳からはバレエ、声楽などのクラシックなヴォイストレーニングも学び、14歳でミュージカルスクールに入学。「アラジン」でのメインキャスト、「オズの魔法使い」かかし役、「ピーターパン」ピーターパン役など、数々の主役を演じ絶賛を浴びる。15歳でヒップホップを始め、更なるダンスの研鑽のためアメリカ・シェナンドア大学に留学。在学中はダンスツアーチームに選抜され、ニューヨーク州、メリーランド州、バージニア州、ペンシルベニア州をはじめ、カナダや台湾など国内外でツアーを行う。さらにフライング・ダンスカンパニーのプロフェッショナルダンサーとしても活動し、バージニア州やミズーリ州でのツアーを大成功に導く。
アルゼンチンタンゴ、アフリカンダンス、カポエイラなど幅広いジャンルにも挑戦し、振付作品は常に高い評価を受け、正式公演として上演される。アメリカ最大規模のアメリカン・ダンス・フェスティバルにも参加し、世界中から集まった400人以上のダンサーの中からオーディションで選抜され舞台に立つ。卒業時には成績優秀生徒として表彰され、飛び抜けた表現力とテクニックを称えられる。
その後ニューヨークに拠点を移し、公演を重ねるとともに、ソロアーティストとしても活動を展開。ニューヨークでの単独公演に加え、日本(広島・福岡)でも凱旋公演を実現。同年、禱(いのり)映監督による邦画『わっげんおっげん~女たちの都~』で銀幕デビューを果たす。翌年には、イギリスのホール・ホグ・シアターによる宮崎駿監督作品『Princess MONONOKE~もののけ姫~』の世界初舞台化ロンドン・日本公演に、唯一の日本人キャストとして出演。ソロミュージカルでは自ら作詞作曲を手掛けた楽曲を挿入歌として披露し、CDソロデビューも果たす。
そのほか、パリミキのCM楽曲提供・ナレーション、大澤嘉工監督のドキュメンタリー映画『8 DAYS TRIP』ナレーション、堀江貴監督『Ordinary Days~普通の日々~』主演、コリー・ブラマー監督アクション短編『ONIKA』出演など映像作品にも多数参加。
現在はニューヨークを拠点に、ダンサー、シンガー、女優、振付家、脚本家、モデル、ナレーター、MCとして幅広く活躍中。「人生に涙と笑いは必要不可欠である」をモットーに、表現活動を続けている。

It was such an honor to collaborate with Chigusa Fukushima, a Samadhibowl player from Japan, has been playing the Japanese originated spiritual instruments, and Megumi Yamada, a Cymasonic artist based in CT/NY, has acquired the technique of Quantum Healing. We created a world with Yin-Yang through the sound and the body. A world that let yourself feel this miracle space created with humans, moments, and the frequency. A World that purified and balanced your energy circulation!! A world where you could simply enjoy what's in front of you!! Of course, it was challenging to present and create an exciting and special moments with dance and sound in quantum levels. It was definitely a new world you got to experience in the city!! SO MUCH FUN!!! Thank you very much for supporting me, everyone!!!!
