Thank you for this topic!
I went to "Reborn Garden" last Sunday. I was very touched, because the show was full of love. Especially, Stéphane's Prelude was too beautiful for words.
At first, he appeared at the end of the first part for observing a silent prayer. then, He did only one program (Prelude) at the second part.
Before he appeared, Ms. Yukari Nakano was reading his comments. I can not to write his comments because I could not buy a brochure unfortunately, but it was very heartwarming comment.
When he stood on the rink, I thought the crowd became in tense very much. There was full of tension in the air. There was very silent atmosphere...we just gazed his performance. Of course when he did his great spin, the crowd gave him a clap very much. But after finishing the performance, there was filled with deafening cries of joy from the crowd. He bowed politely and wholeheartedly to the crowd.
It was amazing moment. I felt so happy to be able to be there.

Thank you for your impression, cebstar. I went to Reborn Garden, too. It was a really warm show. I was very touched with it. Stephane's Rachmaninov was really great, as usual. Every time I saw the program, I was impressed by the synchronization with Stephane's skating and the piano sounds. In addition, this time I felt great power, passion and energy in his skating. Maybe I waxed a little bit sentimental because we offered silent prayers for the victims at the time the earthquake happened. I felt as if he gave us a supportive push to move forward. He got biiiiig applause, off course! In a program book, Stephane's message is printed. Maybe the same message Yukari read before Stephane's performance. It's... " It's great time that this event was planned with thoughts for all the victims and that's why I want to perform to share my heart. I feel very concerned about the condition in Japan and I really want to, if I can, help. If everyone helps a little bit, it will be bigger. I wish for a Reborn Garden, a beautiful Reborn Garden, and that it will shine for Japan. " I really appreciate his thoughtfulness. Pretty Great Personality!! I heard the donations are delivered to the children's institution, children who lost their parents in the apocalypse, through this organization NPO. www.jen-npo.org/en/index.php I hope these children feel they are supported and loved by a lot of people in the world!

Thank you so much, pianomaya, cebstar and ann for the news about Reborn Garden. I hope very much that the show was a big success first for the organisation who helps the victim children, but also a pleasure for the audiance who attended the show and of course also for the skaters. And I am glad that Stephane did so well. Hopefully there will be some photos or even videos!?

Thank you cebstar (congratulations for your AS debut!) and ann. Your impression touched me very much. Stéphane's performance is every time not same as earlier. I think, that he makes a special atmosphere, crowd catches it, there is a comunication between him and crowd and it makes his unique performance. We can not see his this performance but that he did such a performance, like you wrote here, touched me enough! Thank you!
mejokuste, Photographing or video recording was forbidden, so there will not come any foto or video from fans but it is written in the web site, that they think about making a dvd but it is not decided yet.

Thank you very much for all the stories. This show was really special, at least this is what I understand from things I read. Way to go to Miki for organizing it and to all the skaters for taking part in it. I saw this nice video (no Stephane there, only one-two frames when all of the skaters are on the ice) and I wanted to share it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS2CBwYJ6Ms

thank you, reut! I'm sorry they didn't show Stephane as much. I didn't see TV cameras at the show so I thought there was no videos of this wonderful show. So pity!! But there were several professional photographers, so I hope the photos will be put in some publications someday...

May i ask - why there was no pics of this beautiful show in media? Did media not cover it? I didn't know the reason... But I think, on 11th Mar. there were so many memorial events that media didn't have enough time and man power to catch up every event. Figureskating is very famous in Japan now but there were more famous and familiar events, e.x. famous actors’,singers', off course the national public event and so on. Adding them, there was the event in Tohoku in which Shizuka, Yuzuru and other skaters who come from Tohoku took part. So Reborn Garden might get less attention.

I was looking for streams and there are so many MBC-s - which one of them is right? I'm looking at MBC website, and you got the day and time of the broadcast right. But it is supposed to be "local" broadcast, which means some regional stations of MBC may not broadcast the show at that same time. I don't know which streams you are looking at, but it seems that you will really need to get the right streams or you may be disappointed. But then, I don't expect much from the "official" broadcast anyway...
