Business Overview

This is Nanori's second performance using the context of Japanese skit culture and re-performing as theatrical art. This performance is a part of the initial trilogy following “Nanori 1, ” and it seamlessly combines conte (skits) without darkening, and incorporates physicality apart from the text such as dance. It also focuses on the 'body of a shadow' in 'koken' (guardianship), a classical art of Nohgaku, and attempts to show the body outside the performance on the stage.

Profile

【Nanori】
Based on the concept of "conte as a theatrical art," this is a sketch comedy company that aims to dismantle the culture of conte and re-perform it with the principle of "humorism" instead of "laughter".
