Business Overview

For the first time in two and a half years, Nibroll will present a new dance performance in Japan and abroad. He will stay and create works in various regions in Japan and overseas, and research and collect information on the characteristics, culture, and history of the region using various techniques such as dance, video, music, and art. Focusing on the "Living and living" of local residents with different cultures, histories, and values, he organically fuses them together in a way that does not damage their diversity, and creates powerful works that can reach a large audience. The first year will focus on research and creative writing, the second year on domestic and Asian tours, and the third year on European and American tours.
