SCBWI Tokyo presents "The Magic of Kamishibai" with Kyoko Sakai and Etsuko Nozaka of the International Kamishibai Association of Japan.
Kamishibai (literally paper theater) is a Japanese story form dating back to the 1930s when storytellers bicycled about towns telling stories with picture cards. Part of Japan’s unique cultural heritage, kamishibai has entered a new era, and Kyoko Sakai and Etsuko Nozaka of the International Kamishibai Association of Japan (IKAJA) will discuss the recent revival of kamishibai in Japan and its universal appeal. Current trends in the field and the marketing and publishing of kamishibai today will be covered, followed by kamishibai performances.
Note: The event will be in English.
