Concepts and Goals
Monochrome Circus continues to search for different ways of physical communication by a variety of methods. They develop their works through collaborating with people from different walks of life in their dances, 'delivery' performances and workshops. These works are born from a combination of the reality of the body and the stories to which it gives birth.
Future Plans
To perform a collection of Kosei Sakamoto's short pieces.
To perform "Refined Colors" (a collaboration piece with Takayuki Fujimoto of Dumb Type).
To hold workshops and create pieces for children.
To work with people of different professions and walks of life, connecting actively through dance.
