Notice of "DRUMS"'s content change

Due to unavoidable circumstances, although “DRUMS” was scheduled to be performed in two parts, only the first half, written and directed by Chong Tze Chien (Singapore), will be performed.

We hereby inform the public of changes to the program content for “DRUMS”, which was scheduled to be performed as a bridging program expanding the potential of the Tokyo Festival.

“DRUMS” was scheduled to be performed in two parts—the first part written and directed by Chong Tze Chien (The Finger Players theatre company, Singapore) and the second part written and directed by Shigeki Nakano (Shigeki Nakano + Frankens, Japan). Unfortunately, due to Mr. Nakano’s poor health, performance of the second part will no longer be possible. The program has been changed and will now feature the first part only.

We sincerely apologize to all those looking forward to the performance. We appreciate your kind understanding.
