HANJO is the old drama for traditional NOH
(NOH:Japanese classic theater).
The theme of HANJO is the pathos for crazy lady waiting the lover's coming.
Yukio MISHIMA modified the theme in his text for modern NOH to the humanity problem for a conviction which will no be able to changed. The ending of his arranged story inspired KITAO.
While pursuing the theme (Frigidity carried by Painless Civilization and Self-Announced Identity) deeply and essentially, KITAO will seek to imbue her performances with "corporal thinking" through her physical expression and spatial presentation. She is working from a human body concept that arises from constant yet often latent human questions (including the problem in the present-day life and Society) and is developing solo dance performance.
KITAO is thinking through the body sense (by sensual-thinking) and hopes to give the thinking time about the illusionary truth. We meet (or make) a lot of fragmentary information and remembrance.
And........., We sometime lose the realities.
