Profile
Research in France sponsored by The Agency for Cultural Affaires.
1996: La Danse Compagnie Kaledoscope was founded and began performing. Has created new works every year since inception.
Received the Excellence Award at The Agency for Cultural Affairs Art Festival for KINESPHERE TEXT and Yami kara Yamini Tsutaerarete Iku (NIGHT PASSAGE). Kazuyuki was recognized as an up and coming radical writer.
His choreographed movements now have an established reputation, and he regularly presents his works to the Japan Ballet Association, NBA Ballet Circles, Nigata dance Association, etc.
Kazuyuki was selected as lesson teacher for Matthew Bourne Company (a Britain-based company) during Japan tour.
La Danse Compagnie Kaledoscope has received many awards in the Tokyo News Paper Contest, Saitama International contest, arts festivals, etc.
Concepts and Goals
For 10th anniversary, performed 11 works in 10 days (The World of Kaleidoscope) and performed Five Works, which was designed and created by dancers. Currently working on the company's three main objectives: expanding current activities, performing new and previously established works, and assisting new, young choreographers in finding opportunities.
Future Plans
To perform throughout Japan.
When Kazuyuki was an instructor for Matthew Bourne Company, he longed to present works for foreign dancers. It has since been his hope that an exchange program for dancers will be established in the future.
