Business Overview

This is the apathy that takes place in the convenience store that symbolizes Japanese society. In the midst of an increasingly uncertain society, they seem to have stopped feeling anger, depression and despair. Bach is used for music. By adapting the distinctive decorative nature of baroque music to the speech and movement (Stuttering, repeated small movements, etc.) as if knocking had occurred, it is intended to present a state in which the performance is subordinate to the structure of the music more radically than in "Hot Pepper, Cooler, and Farewell" first performed in 2009.

Profile

[Cherfitsch]
It was established in 1997 as a theater company in which Toshinori Okada wrote and directed all works. Through works such as "March no 5 dayu" (the winner of the 49 Kishida Kunio Drama Prize), he developed a lazy and noisy physicality that seemed to exaggerate or not exaggerate his daily actions. Since then, he has continued to update his methodology, focusing on the relationship between words and the body, and has continued to this day. Since KUNSTEN FESTIVAL DESARTS 2007 (Brussels/Belgium), which is called the most important festival in the European performing arts world in May 2007, "5 Days in March" made its first appearance outside Japan, it has been invited overseas many times in Asia, Europe and North America. In 2011, his work "Hot Pepper, Cooler, and Farewell" won the Critics Prize of the Theatre Critics Association of Montreal, Canada.
