Ikuko Sekita
Established in 2019, SEKITA IKUKO is a theater unit led by Ikuko Sekita. Guided by their philosophy of “wide-angle lens theater,” the unit treats every element within the theatrical space—walls, floors, performers’ bodies—with equal weight. This methodology invites audiences to experience new perspectives and altered senses of distance. A defining trait of the unit is that members come together as independent individuals, with an emphasis on active, interdisciplinary participation from everyone in all aspects of the creative process. The Performing Arts Festival: Autumn Meteorite 2025 Tokyo has selected SEKITA IKUKO as its first commissioned artist.
We believe their distinctive creative methodology will offer audiences fresh perspectives and unfamiliar sensations.
The work’s title contains two meanings: the literal one of “undertaking,” and the other of “revealing hidden places, such as the space under the floor in a theater.”
In making this new work, we held an open call for performers and creative collaborators eager to explore new spatial perspectives and physical expressions, with the aim of examining the elements required to create a theatrical work within this space. As a result, two new members were selected to join the process.
