“I think I was trying to cram that into a pop show. “I don’t think I really got across the pure, real emotion behind this record and how much it really affected me privately,” Sawayama said. Despite the amount of press she did for “Hold the Girl,” Sawayama said she was unable to express what she meant about its personal nature. The storytelling component is crucial for Sawayama, who sees the tour as a way to more accurately communicate the significance of her second album. “Everything around Rina during the show has become a vehicle to be really open, really personal, really confessional,” Amy Bowerman said. According to Amy Bowerman, storytelling begets intimacy. This stripped-down mode allows Sawayama to fully communicate the album’s themes. It’s actually sometimes been, how little can we do at this moment?” “It’s not been about making things bigger and louder and grander. The show will also be musically unconventional to reflect Sawayama’s “very intelligent pop music,” William Bowerman said. Fans who are familiar with the album’s concepts of safety and self-evolution will recognize the structure’s meaning. The structure will be adaptable and can go from being opaque to empty, with different colors and props to transform it into a symbolic space (for example, a boxing ring) that reflects each song. The biggest visual difference is that in lieu of a platform with a ring of lights, there will be a cube in the center of the stage. 2,470 pages Explore Kingdom Hearts III Releases Community in: Nobodies, Organization XIII, Characters in Chain of Memories, and 7 more English Axel View source Axel (, Akuseru) Gameplay Sprites Biographical information Originally Lea Residence The World That Never Was Membership Organization XIII, No. Sawayama will play a character who is “an exaggerated version of herself.”Īudiences who saw her on the earlier tour can expect new costumes and choreography.

The show, which will be organized into four acts, will have a plot and dancers who are “more like cast members,” Amy Bowerman said.


William acts as music director through WFB Live, and Amy is Sawayama’s creative director, separate from the company. She is working with Amy and William Bowerman, a married couple and cofounders of music direction company WFB Live, for the tour. Sawayama describes the show as “theatrical” with the narrative and flux of a play. The performances are constructed to avoid being “too self-absorbed” and to convey a specific story and emotional arc, she said. The revamped tour is a result of that creative reset. Rina Sawayama's upcoming tour will be completely redesigned, with new visual and musical styles.
