Outline

Synopsis
A world in which the global temperature is climbing. Land is turning into desert and starting to sink due to rising sea levels. The people who live in areas that will be underwater in a few decades’ time survive each day by scavenging for food from the garbage that falls from above. While there is life, they will dance. They relish the joy of being alive and live in the now to the fullest. Then a new life comes along. Will they reconsider the future they have abandoned, given the life that has appeared before them, as they just wait for the end?

Profile

avenir’e
The theater group’s name “avenir’e” is an abbreviation of “avenir ensemble” meaning “ensemble of the future.” Going forward, the group aims to become a uniquely Japanese ensemble team that includes a dramaturg.

A collaborative ensemble without a theater, which respects and leverages each others’ creativity
The ensemble aims to create dramaturgs unique to Japan, uphold the “4Cs” (community, collaboration, creativity, celebrity) in its creative work, and to expand the creativity of its audiences through a high level of safety and the creativity this engenders.
