“Brave Season BASARA” develops Tate (Sword battle play) and action performance
in Japan.These are often taken by a play for a effect of direction, based
on “Budo” and “Kabuki”.But, we are free form tradition and forms.So we
are going to close up only for a part of “Tate” and “Action”.And challenge
to create a new “Tachimawari” constantly.We hope that you will feel something
from the show of “Tachimawari” that is played by a modern.
