Shakespeare’s Wild Sisters Group X Dainanagekijo Notes Exchange Vol.3 "Café Lumière" theatre ver.
A new work resulting from the collaboration between Mie Prefecture and a Taipei theater company, now in its third year. Inspired by "Café Lumière," directed by Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao- hsien as a homage to the great Yasujiro Ozu, it depicts encounters between Japanese and Taiwanese living in the present day.
This work is a homage to the film "Café Lumière". But this work has no relation to actual persons, persons in the film and the story of the film.

Shakespeare’s Wild Sisters Group（莎士比亞的妹妹們的劇團）
Founded in the summer of 1995, Shakespeare's Wild Sisters Group owes its name to the fictional character in Virginia Woolf’s novel A Room of One’s Own, meaning to liberate women’s talents from the oppression of patriarchy. Limiting itself to no specific issues or conventional aesthetics, SWSG takes materials from all arts inspiring to create original theatrical works, which have been brought to participate in many theater festivals in Taiwan as well as overseas for years.
