Theme: Japonisme in Theatre
Outline: Up until the present, the Kansai Regular Meeting has mainly focused on organising exhibition tours. However, we feel that providing venues for our members, especially for our young researchers to present and to further deepen their research through discussion, is another important mission to our society as a whole. Therefore, we decided to organise a joint-session with the Wakate Lab under the lead of Saskia THOELEN, in which we invite two doctoral students to present their current research.
