Performance Requests
We're sorry, but due to health concerns surrounding COVID-19, we are not currently accepting performance requests. We will update this website when we resume activity. For more information, please contact director@jodaiko.com. Thank you for your understanding, and stay healthy!

Performance requests can be made by either filling out the form below or by directly contacting William Shay, External Director, at director@jodaiko.com.

The more detailed a performance request is, the better Jodaiko can try to accommodate the performance. Since Jodaiko is a student organization, we apologize in advance for any performances that cannot be fulfilled due to lack of performer availability. Please also note that the earlier the performance request is received, the better it is for Jodaiko Directors to try and accommodate, however this does not guarantee a performance due to many scheduling and resource conflicts. Please include the following information in your requests.

Performance Request Details

Please provide the address of the location of the performance in the following format:

123 ABC Street
Irvine, CA 92612

E.g. 20 minutes, 30 minutes, etc.

The performance request length is usually referred to as the "set" length. Jodaiko creates a performance set to accommodate a wide variety of events.

A "set" is a single performance which can be comprised of either one or multiple songs. If a performance request involves two sets, a set to open an event and a set to close an event, then please include the performance length needed for EACH set. On average Jodaiko sets last anywhere from 10-30 minutes.

E.g. One set at 7:00pm; opening a show, etc.

If requesting multiple sets for a single performance, please include the times you would want each set to begin. (Ex. First Set starts at 2:40pm, Second Set starts at 4:00pm)

E.g. Wedding, Award Ceremony, Karate Tournament, etc.

It helps for the Jodaiko directors to come up with a performance that suits the needs of the event and sets a particular tone.

E.g. 10-15 audience members, 300 attendees etc.

It helps for the Jodaiko directors to come up with a performance that suits the needs of the event and sets a particular tone.

E.g. A courtyard, patio, gym, etc.
Indoor Outdoor

E.g. Approximately 30ft x 20ft stage, etc.

Given the size of Jodaiko's equipment as well the performance area needed to set up particular songs, it is very important that the performance requester can give an accurate performance area size. Please provide the dimensions of the area.
