Seeking Shadows is a theatrical piece that draws inspiration from the everyday routines of Japanese salarymen. This project delves into the pervasive issues of overwork and stress that permeate contemporary culture.
Making his directorial debut on the international stage in Slovenia last year, his work was hailed as a visual spectacle. This year Ken will make his London debut with his new production Seeking Shadows. Collaborating with an international creative team and ensemble, he aims to deliver a ground breaking theatrical experience that explores the nuanced interplay of light and darkness, both literal and metaphorical.
Ken's commitment to pushing the boundaries of theatre is evident in his choice of collaborators. The international creative team, handpicked for their innovative approaches and diverse backgrounds, brings a rich tapestry of ideas and skills to the production. Together, they are crafting a production that is as visually arresting as it is emotionally stirring.
