Artists

Akira Takayama, Seil Kim

Intermediatheque welcomes stage director Akira Takayama for a discussion event with Seil Kim, leader of theatrical company Seami and stage director of “Play IMT.” Takayama is the leader of Port B, a creative unit searching for ways to expand the possibilities of theater and exploring new methods for connecting theatre to society via its inquiry into the nature of theater itself. Since October 2014, the University Museum, the University of Tokyo (UMUT) and Seami have lead the collaborative theatrical project “Play IMT,” staged at Intermediatheque. This project pursues new possibilities for original theatrical expression within Intermediatheque’s non-theatrical space. In this context, the present event will present Akira Takayama and Seil Kim’s respective thoughts on theater based on their creative activities, offering an opportunity to reconsider the possibilities of theater as a mode of expression.
