✍ Review of LaLaToo Sapporo
👣 Visiting LaLaToo Sapporo
I visited Lalatoo on a weekday night in April at around 10:30PM for the last evening show that was to start at 11PM. The venue was at max capacity on arrival.
The performers of Lalatoo come from a wide range of backgrounds, young to old, state of transition, and ethnic backgrounds with some being half or quarter Japanese.
Patrons are asked to arrive with at least 30-minutes leeway before the show allowing enough time for the performers to mingle with each and every guest seated together.
Performers rotate around and drinks can be purchased for the performers as you get to know them on a personal level with the help of some social lubricant.
This is done between and after the shows until closing that you can opt out of by arriving and leaving between the performances as you wish.
👄 Show Experience at LaLaToo Sapporo
There are two 30-minute shows on every evening starting at 9PM and 11PM at the time of writing.
They consist of highly choreographed dancing, singing, comedy acts and guest interactions which include being invited on stage to be part of the show.
Patrons are permitted to take photographs but aren’t allowed to take any video recordings. These rules are printed on posters displayed around the stage in English and Japanese.
