Business Overview

With the theme of "living," a live session will be held with the blind violinist Takayo Shirai and ☆ Polan no Kai, the Monogatari group that has been sending out the children's stories of Kenji Miyazawa. As a measure to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, vinyl curtains will separate the audience and the stage, and subtitles will be projected on the curtain. "Nighthawk no Hoshi" is a violin performance of newly written music by Takayo Shirai and a solo narration by Kori Saiki. Four poems from the mental image sketch "Haru to Shura" are expressed with animation subtitles. Audio guides of stage sets, costumes, performers and works will be provided in an open format.
