FY29 Creation Grant [Single-year grant program] 2nd term

Business Overview

It presents a new and modern interpretation of Ibsen's plays, reimagines the plays written in the early modern period and the human image depicted in them through theatrical production, performances, and theatrical experiences, and critically reconsiders and reexamines the sense of self that continues to exist today and various ideas that have been regarded as universal values such as freedom, equality, and benevolence. In terms of international exchange, it is to rediscover and share our differences and commonalities through Western classical dramas that are equally distant from each other. Then, we will let them know about shelf's production method and creation approach, and lay the groundwork for future joint work with local students.
