FY2025 2nd Startup Grant

Business Overview

This is a sequel to her 2025 work, in which she contemplated her grandmother, who suffered from dementia. A temple in Endo's hometown of Ota Ward was selected as the venue. For the performance, it introduced the "gochisosamawari" system, in which tickets are paid later, and created goods in cooperation with businesses in Ota Ward.
As a result, a wide range of people from teens to seventies attended, and more than 30% of the audience were new to contemporary dance performances. It is thought to have contributed to the creation of local opportunities to appreciate performing arts and to the development of new audiences.
