Hara Saori | Questions "vibration and acceptance" through memories of the body born and raised in Japan, a major earthquake country.
Under the theme of "environment and body," Saori Hara, who creates performance-type works using various media such as his own body, light, sound, text, and drawings, presented the choreography work "P wave" at ComMunE. The theme of this work, which has been developed while changing its shape since 2021, is "vibration and acceptance." Hara, born and raised in Japan, an earthquake-prone country, rethinks his physical memory from a choreographer point of view is the physical and mental way of humans in a swaying environment. What is discovered in the process is nothing but "will" as uncertain as waves that occur and disappear vaguely. The title "P wave" is taken from the initial tremor =primary wave, which is first recorded in seismometer in the event of an earthquake, as a symbol of the viewpoint that captures the "will".
※The performance at SHIBUYA PARCO ART WEEK is a modified version of the premiere of "P wave" in May 2024 (Venue: Gathein Institute Tokyo).

Asahi, Ishikawa
Born in 1995. Actor. Graduated from Tama Art University's theater dance design department, dropped out at 3 years. After that, he went to France and entered the Jack Lukok International Theater School. It's good to enroll, but I didn't know much French or English, and I survived two years with daily classes, extreme poverty in Paris, intuition and effort. Three and a half years have passed since I returned to Japan, and I was blessed with the opportunity to teach, and what was Maim (assimilation) at the base of Lukok's education, and what was the gap between the current Japanese drama? Digging up and verifying.
