Three years ago, a sudden inspiration led me to invite Kana Hanazawa to perform "Pas de Deux." It was a very exciting performance, despite the short duration.
At that time, I asked Ms. Sanae Iijima, the author who came to see the play, if she would write a new work for the two of us.
This time too, it will just be Ms. Hanazawa and me on stage. Relying on each other, we will take on Ms. Iijima's new work.
It promises to be an even more exciting performance than the last.
Please come to the theater and see with your own eyes what kind of ending the two will reach!

This is my second two-person play with Seki-san. I'm very happy to have the opportunity to stand on stage with Seki-san again! I'm already nervous and scared just imagining the actual performance...
Moreover, the script was written by Ms. Sanae Iijima specifically for us. It's too luxurious!
What kind of relationship do Kiichi and Kaname have...? Kaname's words and actions constantly change the impression, so please let her lead you astray along with Kiichi!

"I want to create a cute and scary play."
That's what I thought when I received the wonderful offer to write a two-person play for Tomokazu Seki and Kana Hanazawa.
Both of them are truly wonderful actors, so a play with just the two of them is bound to be interesting. To make it even more appealing, what kind of people, what kind of relationships, what kind of story should they perform? Lovers? Best friends? Enemies? Strangers meeting? Long-standing complicated relationship? ...I want to see all of them, and I want them to perform all of them... But this is it! What I thought was, "A dense time weaving a cute and scary story with beloved and hateful feelings." ...Please, I hope you will witness such a pair. We await you at the theater.

This work began with Tomokazu Seki's great enthusiasm, saying, "I want to perform Sanae Iijima's play with Kana Hanazawa!" In response to that desire, Ms. Iijima wrote a new work specifically for the two of them.
Mr. Seki and Ms. Hanazawa are two individuals with completely different ages, genders, and personalities, but they both possess exceptional acting skills, and when they exchange words, a wonderfully comfortable and interesting atmosphere emerges.
Please come and see this exquisite dialogue play woven by this rare duo at the theater.
