Business Overview

Two actors, who are mainly involved in the creation of theatrical productions, have experience in contemporary dance and have a habit of improvising on the street, form a unit to create a duo dance production.
With the themes of not knowing others, recognizing oneself as others of others, and continuously encountering (correcting) the world in a fresh way, he built up his work by relying on his body's feeling that does not depend on words while repeating words.

Profile

【 Inoue Tetsu 】
Graduated from the Faculty of Letters, University of Tokyo. While in school, he was a member of Komaba Agora Theater, Seinendan and Kakushinhan, and worked as a producer and actor. At present, she performs and directs plays in a group called Mamiana, and improvises dancing on the street. The aim is to become an expressive artist who dances in response to the surrounding environment, such as scenery, sound, wind and river flow, and the movement of birds and people, and explores and embodies the state of mind and body that can be flexibly associated with them.
She started creating dance works when she joined the YAU CENTER ZENIGAME Resident Program.
