Over 40 acts will leap, juggle and coax laughs from passersby at this year’s Sangenjaya Street Performers Festival. A fixture of lively Sangenjaya for going on two decades, “Sanja De Daidogei” spills out from the station area to include the Setagaya Public Theater and Carrot Tower plaza. Among the performers making the trip from abroad this year are Canadian acrobats Street Circus, American comedian The Collector and French performance art troupe Theater Rue Piétonne. Japan is represented by baka acts including multiple repeater Sexy Davinci and Japanese-English comedy duo Funny Bones.
