Business Overview

For many years, I have aimed to make foreign children's literature into a stage play so that children living in Japan can have an opportunity to meet a wider world. As the first part of this project series, Annabelle Pitcher's masterpiece, the Brownford Bows Award-winning work "Goodbye, Spider-Man." will be adapted to the stage. The production was directed by Chobi Natsuki, who studied in Canada for 1 year in 2013 under the Agency for Cultural Affairs' Overseas Study Program for Emerging Artists.
