Profile
[Takaha Theater Company]
A production unit with Takaha Aya serving as writer, director and presiding director. In 2005, it was launched at Waseda University and received high praise both inside and outside the university.
It is characterized by its lyrical and cool style in which it scoffs at the small despair that exists universally in everyday life, and the trivial ways and ways of life of human beings that never change, no matter how drastic the situation.
