A three-city tour of Prague, Bucharest and Paris by dance company Co. Ruri Mito. The program comprised the group work “Sumika” (performed in all three cities) and the solo work “Matou” (performed in Bucharest and Paris only). The company also held a workshop in Bucharest. The tour was completed after a delay of three years due to the coronavirus pandemic. It was the first opportunity to present Ruri Mito’s brand of physical expression and the appeal of her works outside of Japan, and the performances were well received in each city.
