Your Daily Schedule
While the main part of your day will be spent in rehearsal, the rest of your day will include a range of activities that span from masterclasses, to lessons and coachings, to cultural events. We also ensure you have some time to yourself to explore the city. Our hotel and rehearsal venues are located in the heart of two of Tokyo’s most exciting districts: Shinjuku and Ueno.
Staging Rehearsals
Rehearsals will constitute the bulk of our artistic work, and will run for six hours each day in two 3 hour blocks. This schedule mimics professional staging rehearsal standards.
New Ideas Feed Artistry
In your time outside of rehearsal, we are working with local cultural consultants to take you into several districts and historical landmarks around the city while teaching you about its rich history. While our final schedule won’t be confirmed until closer to our start date, activities we’re hoping to include are a day trip to a nearby Edo area castle town, tea ceremonies, several walking tours and some traditional Japanese Kabuki Theater. There will also be days we collectively visit a new district with no plan at all except discovery.
The list of artists throughout history whose entire output has changed after exposure to Japanese culture is long and rich. We hope you’ll feel equally inspired.
