Description

Sankai Juku is a world renowned butoh dance troupe. The group is known for its technical precision balanced by sublime elegance and profound depth of emotion. The group is directed by Ushio Amagatsu, who claims that while “butoh is a dialogue with gravity,” other dance forms tend to revel in escape from gravity. This event titled “Tobari” is an enigmatic dance comprised of seven tableaus depicting “the cosmos of life” in cycles of birth, death and rebirth.
