“Double Booking”-2023-

  • Organization : NO.4 Co., Ltd
  • Section : None
  • Type of Grant Program : Single

Outline

With a script based on the concept of a “double booking” starting simultaneously at theater folk favorites Kinokuniya Hall and Theater Tops, this is a fantastical play in which the 23-strong cast develop the story as they flit back and forth between each theater. The performance at both venues encompasses the play’s themes: i.e. that it is absorbing to watch the show at one theater but even more absorbing to watch at both; and the questions of what theater is, and what constitutes theater artists’ way of life and thinking.
