This solo performance by theater company Kamome Machine draws attention to the essence of the Japanese Constitution, basing its text on material from the Constitution itself, from school textbook “Atarashii kenpo no hanashi” (“The Story of the New Constitution”) distributed by the Ministry of Education at the time, and from speeches by prominent politicians of the day like Yukio Ozaki and Hitoshi Ashida. In doing so, the work shares its questions about the Constitution and society with the audience, unbound by the revision vs. protection dichotomy of the constitutional debate. “Oregayo” has to date racked up rooftop performances at the Wakayama Museum in Ginza, and showings at ST Spot in Yokohama and other venues. Now the troupe is taking the work to Romania, performing at the theater event Temps d’ Images Festival in Cluj, and at the Centrul de Teatru Educațional Replika theater in Bucharest. “Oregayo” transcends the geographical distance between Asia and Eastern Europe to demonstrate the theatrical potential for debate about state and society on the basis of “constitution”.
