Profile
Dairakudakan
It was established in 1972 by the organizer, Seji MARO. He named his style Tenputenshiki (great talent is born in this world), collected and constructed constantly forgotten 'gestures and gestures,' and has produced more than 60 works. In 1982, they performed in France and America for the first time as a dance company and gave a strong impact, spreading "Butoh" widely. He has also devoted himself to nurturing young dancers and has produced many dancers and dance groups.
