TRAILER

OSHICHI

This one and a half hour show is inspired by a short story written by the Japanese novelist Saikaku Ihara in his book FIVE WOMEN WHO LOVED LOVE. OSHICHI tells a dramatic tale that all Japanese people know well.

The Artistic Director of the KIO THEATER GROUP, Kohey Nakadachi, revisits this tragic story with talent by offering several points of view, located in the past, the present as well as in the distant future.

The music of Jérôme Baur also crosses the ages by mixing very different styles and instruments. A sound color that gives a real identity to the show and to the spectators, a ticket for an amazing journey.

ANNECDOTE

When I compose for a show, I work most of the time in front of the stage, but whenever possible, I also like to go on adventures in the city to find a terrace, a restaurant or a park where I can set up my nomadic studio and continue composing.

Being in a different environment, with the hustle and bustle of the city and the sounds of the city influence my writing. It allows me to distance myself from the show, to (re)consider it as a whole and to bring new colors that I probably wouldn't have found if I had stayed in the room.

On the picture above, I found this very Japanese terrace in Osaka, on top of a skyscraper. There, I took advantage of the nice weather to work for long hours outside. This strange guy, with his headphones, concentrated on his keyboard, with mimics typical of musicians who play does not fail to attract the curiosity of other customers ...
