Business Overview

1)At Za Koenji 2, a performance with sign language interpretation is performed in the same way as a regular performance. 2) We invite people from various positions in the theater world to see and understand "What does that look like?" with their own eyes. 3) Take a video of the situation and make a digest version so that "What is a stage sign language interpreter?" can easily imagine. 4) At the end of the video, opinions and impressions from both the performers and the audience are recorded, and it is suggested that stage sign language interpretation has a certain effect on attracting audiences. 5) The DVD will be widely distributed free of charge.

It was established as a voluntary organization in December 2012, and was certified under the Specified Non-Profit Activities Law in July 2013.
