Kakuya Ohashi and Dancers, the cutting edge of Japanese Contemporary Dance, is coming back to Theatre Tram after 3 years since "The Rite of Spring" in 2010, to present a new dance piece based on the novel "Les Grandes Vacances" by Hirotaka Tobi, the leading author of Science Fiction in Japan.
The very existence of Art is being questioned nowadays in relation to the overwhelming reality of the surrounding world. Through Art, we challenge the notion of contemporary "human-ness" borrowing the power of Science Fiction.
