“+51 Aviación, San Borja” was first performed in Yokohama in February 2015. Okazaki Art Theatre leader and director Yudai Kamisato spent two years collecting material to create the work, which traces his personal family roots. It was staged at the 2016 Kunstenfestivaldesarts, an annual international performing arts festival that takes place in Brussels every May.

Summary:
This semi-documentary-style work traces the roots of its writer, Peru-born and Kawasaki-bred Yudai Kamisato, referencing the lives of the Latin America-connected figures Seki Sano, known as the “father of Mexican theater,” and business tycoon Ryoichi Jinnai, who spent his latter years working in agriculture in Hokkaido.
