Business Overview
The Theater Commons is a project to create "common land" in society by utilizing the "common knowledge" of theater. By "using theater" in daily life and urban space, in other words, utilizing theatrical ideas, it aims to present the form of "the coming theater/theater". Through theatrical imagination, different things and multiple times intermingle, and together with the artist, they create an experience that brings dialogues and discoveries that disintegrate everyday life. This time, a total of nine programs were held at multiple venues in Minato Ward and online under the curation concept of "asynchronous words." Various programs were held, including theatrical performances, lecture performances, theatrical installations, workshops, handouts, and forums. Participating artists include Kyunchome, Bohert/van der Sukhoto, Satoko Ichihara (Q), Shu Tseyu, Monira Arkadiri & Raed Yassin, Tomoko Sato, Reframe Lab, and others.
