Celebration of 40 years of Story Telling !
The Market Theater, Windybrow Theater, Department of Arts and Culture Incubator Programme presents!
舞踏と音楽で「ホームレス」の人々を描く、叙情詩。
そこから見える彼らの「人間としての尊厳」とは？
そんな彼らが住む、この世界とは？
In My End, Is My Beginning is a story about homeless people that explores their interaction with other ordinary people.
It highlights the obstacles that they encounter in their life in the streets, and shines a light on their plight as they aspire to rise above their circumstances. Through movement and music we are taken into a world we very seldom put ourselves in.
The play deals with dignity and giving humanity to homeless people. It puts a human face on their problems, and creates a sense of acknowledgement from the world that they exist, even if that unsettles the privileged.
始まって５分で涙が溢れはじめ 止まらなかった だけど
ホームレスの人々がホームレスであることに涙したわけではなく もっと奥深いところ・・
なぜこんなに涙がでたのか じっくりあとで整理してみたかったけど
まだ整理できない
人間というのは どんな過酷な状況にあっても どこかで光を探してしまう生き物
頭がおかしくなっても 光をどこかで覚えている
たとえ５０年、６０年一言もその名前を言わずとも
無意識に呼ぶ名前が ５０年、６０年前に生き別れた人の名前だったりする
その記憶とは あなたにとって何だったのだろうか
そしてそのことを知る人は 今は誰もいない
乾いてみえるその瞳の奥には どうしようもないくらいの溢れ出る鮮明な記憶と感情があって
その中に彼らは まだ 生きている
それは ただの弱さだと いえるのだろうか わからなくなる
そして何が わたしと彼らの違いというのか
社会の泥の中でもがいて埋もれて それでも なお 息をしている限り わたしたちは・・・
After it started even just 5min later, i was already crying.
Their story-telling, concept, performance, sound and lights, all combination touched my heart deeply...
It was truly powerful, real, inspiring.
The reason i cried was not because of they were homeless people in the story.
i am still searching the best words to express my deep inside now...
Human.... we are the ''livings'' can't stop searching the light no matter what..
Even if you were in the mental disorder, you would still remember the light clearly on sweet days...
Even though you haven't told the name since 60 years long,
but under the unconsciousness, before you go, you might talk the name,
who was your beloved, passed away 60 years ago...
what did the memory mean for you ..... ?
Yet no one knows you had your life....
Dried eyes, but behind it, there are thousand of emotions and memories.
who could know it ? No one knows.
They are living in there. still.
Will you say that is weakness ? I don't know , sometimes...
what is the differences between us ?
We all are struggling in the mud, surviving in the mad, and as long as we breath,
still we are searching.....
コンセプト、物語自体がすでに私のポイントにヒットしてはいたのだけど
その表現の仕方が感嘆せずにはいられない域だった
舞踏の振付、構成の素晴らしさ、それを完璧にこなすダンサーの迫力、表情。
それに重なって 魂を揺さぶるような歌声、腹の底からみなぎる言葉。
美しい動きにあわせて感情をあらわすサウンドとライト技術。
観客に迫りくるホームレスやスラムの人々の生命力を表現するダンサーたち。
合間に切なく響くギターの音色。
暗闇の中に光るシャボン玉と彼らの笑顔と悲しみ。
１時間という凝縮された時間の中にこれだけのクオリティと完璧さ。
本当に素晴らしかった。
終わってからも涙が止まらず、わたしの中の真実がこだまするように響いていた。
これがあなたの確かなもの、いるべき場所、いくべき場所・・・・
Concept and Story already hit my point,
but i just awed that the way of their total quality expression....!
The choreograph and composition was really beautiful,
Dancers performed perfectly with colorful face expressions,
with the soul voices from amazing two singers, and spoken words from their spirit.
Behind it, the sound and light skill add the emotions to their movements beautifully.
Dancers came to the audience as the strong life of homeless people.
Meantime the sound of guitar is creating the heart- pain.
The smile and sadness is shining in the darkness with soap bubble.
Just in 1 hour performance, the top quality was inside the box !
It was really AMAZING....
My tear couldn't stop after the show as well, my soul sounded again and again.
'' This is the place, where you stay, where you go....''
