Outline

An outdoor theater event using Tokyo Metropolitan Shiba Park as its venue. It was an opportunity to convey a side of Tokyo that people would not normally be aware of in everyday life, in a production providing views of Tokyo Tower from the audience seats and incorporating the history of Shiba Park history into its dialog. Featuring performers with diverse backgrounds including dancers and musicians in addition to actors, it was a performance experience that conveyed the diversity of people in Tokyo to the audience.
Passers-by in the park were also able to watch the performance from outside the audience seating area, allowing people who do not routinely have an opportunity to visit the theater to experience the dramatic arts.

Composition/direction/music: Masashi Nukata
Performed by: Aokid, Kiyomaru Togo, Wataru Naganuma, Tsumugi Harada, Shiho Fukasawa, Masashi Nukata
