Business Overview
As the opening project of Tachikawa Sosousha, which will start full-scale operation in October as the first project to utilize an abandoned school in Tachikawa City, playwright So Kitamura's masterpiece "Sosho: Night of the Galactic Railroad" will be performed, directed by Theatre Ort's Yasushi Kurasako. It is a revival of the work which premiered in Sapporo in April 2013 and was acclaimed as "I was able to think about the question of "What is death? What is life?" explored by Kenji Miyazawa." By setting prices that make it easier for local residents who are unfamiliar with theater to come to the theater, the city is taking the first step in revitalizing culture and arts in Tachikawa City, which will lead to the future.
