Business Overview
The early Showa period. February, 1936. Six doctors were assembled in the anatomy room of the university. Their goal is to perform an autopsy on the body of a death row inmate to determine whether the body of an extraordinary criminal has any physical or medical characteristics. But no matter how long he waited, the body never arrived. The doctors begin to share their feelings as they wait for the body.

Profile
[Takaha Theater Company]
A production unit with Takaha Aya serving as writer, director and presiding director. In 2005, it was launched at Waseda University and received high praise both inside and outside the university. It is characterized by a lyrical and cool style in which he laughs at the small despair that exists universally in everyday life, and the trivial ways of being and living that do not change no matter how severe the situation.
