* Rebekah Barber, dancer and artist in Kalamazoo, MI, U.S.A, visited Sapporo to see Itto and Mika of GooSayTen in 1997. We had a good talk and wonderfull discussion about Butoh and arts.
In 2000, she came to Vancouver, Canada, to see GooSayTen's performance "Princess Toki" for the Vancouver International Dance Festival, and invited GooSayTen to perform in her town, Kalamazoo, through a dance company "Wellspring Cori Terry & dancers".
GooSayTen was honored to be invited and show the new Butoh work "A-MA-E-RE-YA (Cherished)" in Kalamazoo during the U.S.A.'s hard time against the terrorism.
She got married in 2001, now Rebekah Blesing, showed her art pieces to Mika and Itto , and one of which surprised them: She told that the head of the statue fell down gradually... Mika and Itto found that the statue had become Itto!
