Text and Direction:Oriza Hirata

Romanian Translation : Roman Pasca
English Translation : Cody Poulton

Performance in Japanese with Romanian and English subtitles.(at Craiobva Romanian only)

An assortment of people visit this small art museum in Tokyo in near future to see the paintings evacuated from war-torn Europe. Focusing on their various concerns (family, job, war, art, etc.) this play constructs a whole world of its own, just like a picture made from mosaic tiles. This piece, whose title pays homage to a masterpiece by filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu, "Tokyo Story (Tokyo Monogatari)," is one of the most renowned works of Oriza Hirata. In 1995 he won the Kishida Kunio Drama Award with this piece. Since then Seinendan has been presenting
“Tokyo Notes” in various venues in Japan and overseas, including Europe, North America, Australia, Southeast Asia and Korea.
