100 geiko rehearse annual fall performance

In the ancient capital Kyoto, a group of geiko entertainers are rehearsing for an upcoming annual autumn performance. Kyoto's geisha are known as geiko.

About 100 geiko and maiko apprentice performers took part in the rehearsal on Tuesday.

One of the show's major pieces is danced by 11 maiko in prayer for the prosperity of performing arts.

One of the performers said she felt nervous at the rehearsal, but added she wanted many people to come and enjoy their performances.

The annual fall dance performance, called "Onshukai," runs for 6 days from October 1st.
