入倉慶志郎

Keishiro Irikura (入倉慶志郎), also known by his artistic name Shōhō (昭鳳), is a Japanese kenshibu (sword & poetry performance) artist, actor, and tate / action choreographer (fight coordinator). Raised within the tradition of Nihon Sōshin-ryū (日本壮心流), he has been immersed in classical recitation, sword dance, and stage expression since childhood.

Alongside his traditional training, Irikura studied theatre at Nihon University College of Art and built a versatile career bridging Japanese sword performance, acting, and contemporary entertainment staging. He also served as chair of the long-running Tate Dōshikai for two consecutive years and currently leads the Tokyo branch of Nihon Sōshin-ryū, where he teaches.

In 2019, he co-founded the production unit Janome Kikaku (蛇ノ目企画), creating non-verbal shows and entertainment period pieces that merge swordplay, dance, and drama. His profile also notes collaborations with WagakkiBand.
