Together with advancing industrialization, we have entered an era in which items can be bought without the need to use any words at all. This play aims to encourage modern Japanese to consider what it means to communicate with words or to grow and change through conversations with other people, regardless of their age. Describing the story of how one woman grows and establishes herself, it also highlights the seriousness of disparity between cities and farming towns in every era and in every country. It communicates messages in a manner full of humor about family, the smallest unit that makes up a society.
