Shogo Ohta’s compelling look at time and silence between strangers, lovers, young men, a girl.
Shogo Ohta, one of Japan’s most distinguished director/playwrights, contends that we spend nearly 90% of our lives silent, and the frantic speed of daily life has become our “new morality.” His quiet piece reveals travelers who reach for intimacy in a public place.
The director, Steve Pearson, as well as performers Robyn Hunt, Maile Holck, Peter Kyle and Scott Giguere, travelled to Kyoto in 2002 to work with Mr. Ohta.
