Business Overview

With a new work for the first time in a year and a half, Persimmon Eaters make their first appearance at the Honda Theater. In addition to the appearance of all members of Kakijuirukaku, who have been making remarkable appearances outside the company, Eisuke Shinoi, who has a one-of-a-kind presence as an actor, will appear in the film. Nakayashiki Norihito's latest work, "Setsugen," is based on Japanese literature such as "Taketori Monogatari," "Konjaku Monogatari," "Genji Monogatari," and "Ujishui Monogatari." A beautiful but horrible big chronicle unfolds! Writer/Director: Norihito Nakayashiki Cast: Mayumi Shichimi, Reo Tamaki, Yurika Fukaya, Keizo Nagashima, Wataru Omura, Asuka Hamaru/Anna Hachimine, Jun Hashimoto, Koichiro Tomioka/Eisuke Shinoi

Profile

[Persimmon Eaters]
Established a theater group on New Year's Day 2006. A theater group that performs works directed by Norihito NAKAYASHI. Emphasizing the fictionality of theater, he portrays the existence of human beings and the devastation of society ironically by using highly fictionalized speech and acting methods, and is good at creating a stage that elicits cynicism from the audience. His field of activities continues to expand, including domestic tours, overseas performances and international co-productions through the International Theater Exchange Project, residencies at public halls, the Theater Project to Watch with Children, and performances of Shakespeare's adaptation series "Shakespeare the Woman."
