DETAILS

Playwright MIYAMOTO Ken has taken his own experiences to vividly illustrate in Reaction Process the lives of those who worked in a military supplies factory just before the end of the Second World War. This was the second production of the full audition programme originally scheduled for April 2020, but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 state of emergency. The Theatre has been working to stage the play as soon as possible and has now reassembled the whole cast and staff to stage the production in July 2021!

As part of OGAWA Eriko's commitment as Artistic Director of Drama to "experiment and pioneer theatrical systems", the programme is an annual project where every cast is selected through auditions, where creators meet new actors, actors meet a new director, and the theatre meets new creators, and all come together to create a piece.
The Theatre welcomes director, CHIBA Tetsuya, who has been involved with a great many NNTT productions both as an actor and a director. Auditions were held over six weeks from the end of October to mid-December 2018, and among the many who auditioned, 14 actors were cast.
