Business Overview

Held Chapaliana's first theatrical performance, "When it creeps, sometimes bibi" directed and choreographed by Nao Usui. By creating and presenting works with the theme of "a memory that sometimes comes to mind like an electric shock as time marches on," the audience aims to experience the essence of things through the body of the artist. Taking advantage of the free space of the theater, live performances using various musical instruments, and performances by five men and women with rich individuality, the theater works with ingenuity to expand the imagination of the audience and convey the appeal of the performing arts.
