The Embassy of Japan and the Japan Foundation proudly present dance and theatre performance “Restaurant of many orders” directed by Hiroshi Koike at National Theatre in Yangon on 23rd June 2016.

“The restaurant of many orders” is one of the most famous stories written by Kenji Miyazawa, and Hiroshi Koike, well-known Japanese stage director, creates new dance and theatre play based on the original story. This is the first production after Hiroshi Koike dissolved the international performing arts company, Pappa TARAHUMARA. This is a play, and also at the same time, a dance. The actors on stage are human, and at the same time, animals in the forest. It is a comedy, and at the same time, a tragedy. We hope you all enjoy the harmony of dance and theatre play.
