Description
Summary:This message was sent out to the world by Kojin Nishido, President of the Japanese section of the International Theatre Critics (IATC-J) on 30 April 2011 in response to the messages of compassion of and support from many theatre people in the world after the 3/11 earthquake in Japan. After paying gratitude, Nishido recollects scenes from Japanese theatre at the heel of the Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in 1995. The message is one good example of how Japanese theatre critics thought the wake of the quake by looking back on past experiences at the point in time when there were few stage productions that clearly reflected the quake.
