Business Overview

Titled “Lip Exhibition 2, ” this project performed three short works,“ Brothers at Home, ” “Elegy in the Smoking Room, ” and“ Gum Remover. ”. The works presented in this project carefully depict the small conflicts of people living in cities. Even if something is trivial from the perspective of others, it is often a serious problem for the individual, and especially in urban areas, individual conflicts are not often taken up as a problem that society should consider. By sharing small conflicts with the audience in the theater, each audience member was able to imagine the problems of their neighbors. In addition, five male actors (Hiroki BUSHIRA, Akihiro HORI, Keisuke KIMURA, Ryosuke Aonuma, Yamato FUJIYA) appeared in two short stories, making the three short stories interrelated and creating a multi-layered urban ensemble drama.
