Description

This year is Kyoto Experiment’s fifth. We have been able to continue our festival thanks to the support of participating artists, colleagues, and our audiences, hungry for encounters with the unknown. Rather than immersing audiences in extraordinary emotion experiences, at the heart of the festival we have always dedicated ourselves to new projects. We were permitted to try new endeavors every year and perhaps we should be grateful for such an environment which allowed us to concentrate on our work.
And so what will our endeavor be this year? It relates to the framework for theatergoing and so will possibly come across as something internal or limited to the Japanese theaterworld. One-sided ideas about administration are pointless and as things only come about through the understanding and participation of our audiences who actually come to the venues, we’d like to try to introduce our thinking here.
