The Japan Foundation has been running the “Stage Beyond Borders – Selection of Japanese Performances -” project since February 2021. The aim is to bring outstanding Japanese performances to a wider audience through online distribution, accumulating 18 million views from 137 countries since its launching.
So far, a total of 117 performances have been distributed online with multilingual subtitles, covering a wide range of genres from contemporary theater to dance, traditional performing arts, and music. Now, we are pleased to announce a new arrival of 49 performances, including the re-release of previously streamed productions.
3 of these performances are collaborative project between Thai and Japanese Artists, including “Juggle & Hide (Seven Whatchamacallits in Search of a Director)” by Wichaya Artamat, “Whispering Blue– I heard your voice from the back of a blue car” by ISHIGAMI Natsuki & Nuttamon PRAMSUMRAN, and a concert entitled ‘MIKAGE PROJECT ASEAN Tour in Thailand and Malaysia.’ We also distribute records of the concerts held overseas in 2023, featuring ITO Kashitaro, and CHAI, as well as SHIBUYA Keiichiro’s ‘Android Opera® “MIRROR,” ‘which was selected by the ‘International Creations in Performing Arts Program.’
Each performance will feature multilingual subtitles and will be available on the Japan Foundation’s official YouTube channel without cost!
