SPAC Inclusive theatre
TEATORU-TEOTORU

Reaching for each other’s hands, and feeling with your eyes, ears, and heart;
This is a project to offer a theater experience to all people —the disabled and non-disabled alike—
from infants to the elderly.

“A close and far place”

Conception, direction, and scenography:
Fukasawa Eri

Music: Tanakawa Hiroko
　
Once you pass through the entrance gate, you will enter a world inside a looking glass.
There are some strange people right in front of you. Is this real, or is it in your dreams?
You will travel through an imaginary world that spreads out in your mind. In your imagination, you can go to places you do not know and encounter things you have never seen before. Let’s explore such world together, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.

Profile
Ueda Kumiko

Playwright/director, graduated in French literature from Kyoto University, Ueda has been creating works since 2013 at the intersection of philosophy, corporeality, and visual aesthetics. In 2023–2024, she is conducting research at the Théâtre de Gennevilliers as part of an official artistic training program supported by the Japan Agency for Cultural Affairs. During this period, she established her base in France, where she continues to live and work.
Her work explores the sensitive forms of temporality and instinct in a society dominated by productivity. In 2022, her play “Biome” was nominated for the Kishida Kunio Prize, and in 2024, she was selected for an official residency at KIAC for her project “Pneuma”. Recent projects include “Cavalleria Rusticana” (Aichi Arts Center), “Banquet du Vide” (Kamata Onsen), and “Pneuma” (KIAC).
She is currently developing “Les Pleureuses” and “When Does Time Become Beauty?”, two France-based projects that explore the female body and time through choreographic research. Both works are being created in collaboration with artists from diverse cultural backgrounds, reflecting her commitment to transcultural and interdisciplinary creation.
