Tokyu Theatre Orb

Legendary French haute couture designer Jean Paul Gaultier is bringing his unapologetically extravagant and sensual theatrical production to Tokyo this September, showcasing Gaultier’s outrageous creativity and energy. Part revue, part fashion show, the spectacle roughly follows the timeline of Gaultier’s career, depicting the cultural and political contexts that shaped the life of French couture’s enfant terrible. Expect flamboyant dancers in extravagant costumes set to iconic tracks by Madonna, David Bowie, Nile Rodgers and more – spanning disco, funk, rock and punk, all of which inspired Gaultier – while his signature designs, including Madonna’s infamous cone bra, take centre stage in an exuberant high-fashion spectacle. Check the event website for more details.  Tickets are available for purchase in English via Kyodo Tokyo, Zaiko and Ticketbook.
