PLAYHOUSE

24 Jun - 25 Jun, 2023 ( 2 Performances )

TICKETS

Running time is approx. 2 hours and 10 mins including two intervals.

DETAILS

This is the fourth installation in a series of reconstructed performances of works by the early pioneers of the Japanese dance world.

This season's performances are of works by FUJI Mieko, ORITA Katsuko and KANDA Akiko. Having started their dance careers under early greats such as EGUCHI Takaya, ISHII Baku, ISHII Konami and ISHII Midori, these three women choreographers, through their originality and breadth of experience in Japan and overseas, went on to become leading figures in the Japanese modern dance world. This performance from the archives of their representative works will serve as a testimony to the origins of Western-style dance in Japan while exploring its present and future outlook, and cast a light on the Japanese soul.
