This is a special opportunity especially for those interested in theater and artistic expression.
JII is collaborating with the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre to recruit guest participants for a theater workshop which will be collaboratively created alongside local citizens on November 4th.
Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre is holding a “Theater Coordinator Training Course” to develop the skills of people who can connect our society with theater. From October 28th to November 4th, we welcomed Anna Beata Schmutz, artistic director of the citizen ensemble at the Mannheim National Theater in Germany, will be hosting a workshop and lecture entitled “Rethinking ‘Us’ – Living Together with Local Citizens through Theater Creation,” where participants will learn about the theory and practice of creating with people from diverse backgrounds.
※Details of the course: https://www.geigeki.jp/performance/event329/
In the workshop on November 4th, the final day of the course, guest participants will work with aspiring theater coordinators who have taken the training course to create a play based on the concept of “Home”. The play will be based on themes such as what the guest participants feel and experience on a daily basis as foreigners living in Japan.
If you are interested in theater and artistic expression, or if you have never been involved in theater before but are interested and would love to express your experiences, we encourage you to apply!
The workshop will be led by Director Beata and will include a Japanese translation, but if you have difficulty communicating in Japanese, please invite a partner of your own or consult with JII (we will assign someone who can interpret). If you can speak Japanese, you may participate alone.
If you have an Otonari-san partner and would like to participate, Japanese people are welcome to join as well, so please invite your partner and participate together.
