Synopsis:
Programme 2 of Nyoba Kan Butoh Fest 2016
Car Park and The Six Incidents of Murder based on William Shakespeare’s Richard III
As the world celebrates Shakespeare’s 400th Anniversary, Nyoba Kan has conceived a production based on William Shakespeare’s Richard III — with a Butoh injection and interpretation.
As passionate Butoh practitioners in Malaysia, we have a strong desire to communicate and interact with Japanese Butoh Artistes; to work, to collaborate and learn from one another, in an effort to achieve the best possible outcome in our work. Thus this year we have invited a young, up and coming Butoh artiste Nobuyoshi Asai to work with us in this production.
We hope to cultivate a platform of exchange where it can also provides an opportunity for Japanese Butoh Artistes to learn about ‘Butoh in Malaysia’.
To generate more awareness on Butoh to the Malaysian public, we have decided to recruit new talents to our ensemble. Through this we also hope to capture new and wider audience.
