chelfitsch: Five Days in March

Toshiki Okada’s award-winning play from Japan is set on the eve of the U.S. and British offensive in Iraq, when Japan rejoined the ranks of the armed nations for the first time since 1945. The play’s main characters, a young couple of Japanese drifters who meet and spend five days in a Shibuya "love hotel," are completely disconnected from the world events. The production is characterized by stylized scripts and unique body movement.
