Based on Japan's oldest story "Taketori Monogatari" (The Tale of the Bamboo-Cutter), Tokyo Ballet Company's ambitious "Kaguyahime" in three acts, directed and choreographed by Jo Kanamori, will be performed. Set against the backdrop of Claude Debussy's masterpiece, this performance will be the last commemorative performance before the closing of Tokyo Bunka Kaikan, further evolving three years after its world premiere. Please come and enjoy this magnificent and poetic new myth of the 21st century presented by Maria Adachi, Dan Emoto, and other talented dancers. A pre-concert talk by the choreographers themselves will be held prior to the performance, allowing the audience to appreciate the charm of the work even more deeply.
