This is the very first event organised by the foundation and it invites 2 musicians – Koichi Makigami, who performs in Japan and many other countries including the UK, and Yoshihide Otomo.The performance is directed by Hilary Westlake from England, a founding member of Lumiere & Son Theatre Company which was a pioneer of English fringe theatres and hugely influenced by Shuji Terayama and Tokyo Kid Brothers.This is the very first performance Hilary directs in Japan.
