01 / MAKING THEATER
From Carpenter’s Workshop to Theater
When we were looking for a house on Teshima, we were initially allowed to use a former community center, which became our first theater. As it was a public facility, however, there were restrictions on how we could use it. Wanting a place where we could decide for ourselves how to use the space, we renovated a carpenter’s workshop and turned it into our current theater.

We perform Black kite: Pulsation of the Soul, a work exploring the island’s industrial waste problem and everyday life on Teshima today.
