Based on the 1949 work of popular Japanese novelist, Osamu Dazai. As a man plans his death, he meets with friends and past lovers to say goodbye with a beautiful and exhilarating farewell. In a feverish story filled with lightness, brightness and peppered with macabre humour, he relives his life as a student, after university and during and after the war. Set in a bar, accompanied live by the Japanese rock band Kukangendai, where everyone gets increasingly drunk, the piece addresses the struggle to identify what it was, and now is, to be Japanese. Presented in Japanese with English surtitles.| 5 Mar 24 to 9 Mar 24 | The Coronet Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
