Outline

A theatrical performance on “sex and dialog.” This is not a grand study of sexuality, but a one-act play depicting the misunderstandings and dialog between two people with different experiences and subjectiveness when they have sex.
The performance begins when the audience enters the theater, with audience members crossing the stage to get to their seats. The mechanism of a camera for characters to take photographs/record video with draws the audience into what is going on onstage.

Profile

Takuya Yukawa
Born in Kanagawa in 1995. Completed a course at the Graduate school of Art and Design, Tama Art University, where he wrote a thesis called “The structure of considering choices: Fusion of adventure game and Theater.” In his creative work, one of Yukawa’s themes is how to connect the audience, who are on the outside of the performance, to the on-stage content. A characteristic of his creative process is to create a mechanism by which even audience members are able to actively participate in the performance and become one of the characters on stage.
