Der Rosenkavalier">SPAC Autumn→Spring Season 2023-2024 #3
Der Rosenkavalier

A scandalous love affair that is a sidesplitting comedy?
SPAC will launch an all-out attack to make you laugh out loud in the new year!

Der Rosenkavalier is known as a timeless masterpiece opera. Replacing its setting with the glamorous days of early Westernization in Japan, as symbolized by the Rokumeikan building, the opera is reborn as a lighthearted theatrical work with the first joint direction by MIYAGI Satoshi and TERAUCHI Ayako, and the music by NEMOTO Takuya, a master of all music genres from classic to modern music. Experience your first laughs of the year with this slapstick love comedy of aristocrats performed by the actors accompanied by live music!
 

Direction: MIYAGI Satoshi, TERAUCHI Ayako
Text: Hugo Von Hofmannsthal
Music: NEMOTO Takuya

 


 

Story line
The Marschallin is deeply in love with her young lover, Octavian, but she knows that such happiness will not last long. On the other hand, Octavian is appointed as Der Rosenkavalier for Baron Ochs, and as such, delivers a silver rose to Sophie, a young woman who has no choice but to marry the Baron, a very annoying man.
What will you witness? A fling, a marriage of convenience, love at first sight, or stolen love? Who will give up and who will bring this curious romance to fruition?

MIYAGI Satoshi

Born in Tokyo in 1959, after studying aesthetics at Tokyo University under ODASHIMA Yushi, WATANABE Moriaki and HIDAKA Hachiro, he founded the KU NA’ UKA theatre company in 1990 and soon began staging plays overseas as well as in Japan. As a result, Miyagi’s work — in which he often fuses contemporary textual interpretations with physical techniques and patterns of Asian theatre — has long been acclaimed both at home and far beyond. Indeed, in 2004 he received the 3rd Asahi Performing Arts Award, and the next year the 2nd Asahi Beer Art Award. Since taking up his position with SPAC in April 2007, Miyagi has staged many of his own works — including “Medea”, the Hindu epic “Mahabharata”, and “Peer Gynt” — and has invited artists from abroad to present pieces casting a keen eye on the modern world as they see it. In line with his aim to make theatre “a window to the world,” he has also started a new SPAC-based project aimed at the youth of Shizuoka. In 2014, Miyagi was invited to the Festival d’Avignon, where he received excellent reviews for his open-air version of the Hindu epic “Mahabharata” staged in La Carrière de Bourbon. Following that landmark achievement, the festival extended the honor of inviting Miyagi to present a Buddhist interpretation he created of the ancient Greek mythological tragedy “Antigone” as its super-prestigious opening program for 2017. On that occasion, which was the first time an Asian play had ever been selected to launch the festival, Miyagi’s exalted “stage” was the open-air Cour d’honneur du Palais des papes (the Honor Court of the Palace of Popes). By the play’s end, those towering medieval stone walls were ringing out with long and splendid standing ovations welcoming the work’s director and creator along with SPAC’s actors and staff — while more than 60 European media all gave great reviews. In 2018, he received the 68th Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s Art Encouragement Prize of Drama. Also he recieved “Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres” from the Ministry of Culture of France in 2018.

 

TERAUCHI Ayako

26_寺内亜矢子 sMs. TERAUCHI became involved in plays in 1997 in KU NA’ UKA Theater Company. Since the company entered a fallow period in 2007, she has been based at SPAC and appearing on stages in Japan and abroad, while also being engaged in physical expression education at Tokyo University of the Arts. She is an internationally active, multitalented professional involved in all aspects of performing arts creation, including acting, directing, musical performance, musical construction, dramaturgy, interpretation, and translation. She worked as a SPAC director for several plays, including Ootto Eetto Eejanaika (2020) , Chushingura 2021 (co-direction), Three Primary Colors (2022), The Lady Aoi(2023)

 
NEMOTO Takuya

TAKUYA NEMOTO obtained an MMus in conducting from Tokyo University of the Arts. As a student, he had grasped various theatrical works in their original languages, such as English, German, French, Italian, Czech, and even Latin. His singular capability for diction coaching makes him an integral presence in the industry, having been already engaged for hundreds of performances by New National Theatre Tokyo and other key opera companies in Japan. He earned a diploma in basso continuo at Conservatoire National Supérieur de Lyon (France). He also plays cembalo in The Jugong Boys (a duo with a Baroque cellist) and others. As a composer, he placed third (no first/second place winner) in the Ensemble category at the 3rd Tokyo Katsushika Composition Competition 2015. In June 2016, his trio Nemo Concertato (with sax and voice) released the CD book Shuntaro for Adults (Artes Publishing) dedicated to Shuntaro Tanigawa’s poetry. His first opera Kagetora, commissioned by the Myoko Culture Promotion Organization, premiered in December 2018 and was met with accolades.

The Dancing Girl of Izu

“Touristic Drama”—Traveling Izu through Theatre and Video
A young man traveling alone to escape loneliness meets a female dancer along the way. Attracted to the girl, his troubled mind is gradually put at ease, but the time for them to part ways approaches… A novel by KAWABATA Yasunari, a Nobel Prize winner, is made into a theatrical play by TADA Junnosuke, who works as a director in multiple genres, including classical drama, modern play, dance, and performance art. Scenic footage of the beautiful Izu Region, a setting in the story, newly shot for the play is incorporated to provide a new style of “touristic drama.”

Otsuya’s Love">SPAC Autumn→Spring Season 2023-2024 #2
Otsuya’s Love

“It’s like we’re in a play…”
“Otsuya Koroshi”, an early novel by TANIZAKI Junichiro,
revived in the present with the skilled narration and movement of actors.

 

 
This literary work narrates the story of the elopement of Otsuya, the only daughter of a wealthy pawnbroker, and Shinsuke, an apprentice. ISHIGAMI Natsuki, who is directing for the second time at SPAC, following her previous production of MISHIMA Yukio’s “Yoroboshi”, painstakingly interpreted the novel with the actors and staff to explore the connections with the audience living in the present. You will witness the fetishistic expressions and vital love energy extracted from the novel, which would later be recognized as part of aestheticism, and depicted love story that resonates with modern time.

 
Direction: ISHIGAMI Natsuki
