FY26 Phase II Creation Grant [Single-year grant program]
Business Overview
It is a project to provide theatrical experiences for children who are unable to attend theatres due to disability or illness, bringing laughter, joy, and aesthetic and social experiences. Workshop leaders and actors work together to create participatory performances suitable for welfare and medical care, and tour facilities such as disabled children's services and hospitals. We aim to create a place where children, who are alienated from the things they take for granted, can enjoy plays and share their own expressions and stories. The story follows a wizard and his apprentice on their way to exterminate mushrooms. It is a project that transforms the usual children's place into an imaginative place by mixing storytelling, shadow puppets and computer graphics.
