Profile
[Nakano Seiki + Frankens]
Formed in 2003. His common name was Nakafura. Taking up the so-called "translation drama" in which the period, culture and customs are very different from those of modern Japan, we will understand and embody "our current values and bodies.".
We will take up the so-called "translation drama" in which the times, culture, customs, etc. are very different from those of modern Japan, and understand and embody it with "our current values and bodies.".
The audacious arrangement has attracted many cheers, but it has also been met with criticism from fans of the original and theatrical fans who have taken sides with tradition.
Since 2010, he has been engaged in applied theater activities outside the theater under the name of Sotoseki + Frankens (commonly known as Sotofra).
