Momo, a little girl, nervously awaits her turn in a piano recital. A mouse invites her through a tiny door and into a parallel world where Momo enjoys a mouse variety show. The final two spreads show the human audience applauding; Momo was playing in her own recital all along. Miyakoshi's crowd scenes of mouse audience and orchestra are the pleasure here, rich with variety, personality, and micro-narratives.
