VISIBLE - Mujō Dream Flight in Concert ft. Aki Oshiro
2026-04-04 16:00 | The Grand Annex, 434 W. 6th St., San Pedro, CA, 90731
Hear the thunderous rhythms of the drums that affirm our beautiful, resilient existence. Come feel the energy and celebrate the power of being truly seen. Mujō Dream Flight’s first full-length concert, VISIBLE, celebrates Trans Day of Visibility and explores how we resist social erasure when our race, gender, class and disability are all under attack.
This concert is sponsored in part by TaikoVentures and Creative West which receives support in part from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

Mujō Dream Flight (MDF) is the artistic vehicle of founding taiko artists Sasen Cain, Yeeman “ManMan” Mui, and Maxyn Rose Leitner. Based in Los Angeles, they collaborate locally and globally with other predominantly trans/non-binary taiko artists, creating both original works and traditional adaptations. MDF’s art centers dance and personal storytelling informed by their specific cultural backgrounds.
In 2023, MDF organized Blurring the Color Line with Taiko, a well-attended and deeply engaging afternoon arts experience connecting important questions about race, immigration, culture, and American-ness. The event allowed us all to hear from filmmakers, performing artists, community leaders, educators, and ethnomusicologists, as they share their experiences and ideas.
The same year, MDF embarked on its first national tour, called “Haimweh” (Bavarian for homesickness), with the dual aims of highlighting trans/non-binary peoples’ often-fraught connections with their hometowns & families, and a journey of retrieving the belongings of one of our members whose parents don’t accept faer transness, and reclaiming identity, belonging & inter-dependence. This tour was funded, in part, by a Taiko Community Alliance Tier 1 grant.
MDF gave voice to Queer Asian community in LA with our performance at:

The inaugural Okaeri’s Queer Obon (2023).
Transforming Community Care: AANHPI LGBTQIA2-S Mental Health and Wellness by LA Department of Mental Health
Cross cultural solidarity movement, the importance of being with community – FandangObon (2024)
Fusion, genre – the North American Taiko Conference in Phoenix, AZ (2025).
