Overview

Bertolt Brecht’s theatrical masterpiece, The Caucasian Chalk Circle, is reimagined for the modern stage by acclaimed director and playwright Misaki Setoyama. This production presents a “story of from now on,” blending poignant storytelling with a powerful musical score under the direction of Yuki Sakaida. The narrative explores deep themes of justice, maternal love, and the corruptive nature of power, centered on the servant girl Grusha who risks everything to raise an abandoned noble child.

The production features a stellar cast including Haruka Kinoshita, Soichi Hirama, Sara, Ririka Kato, Maki Ichijo, and Hidekazu Mashima. Moving through major cities including Tokyo, Hyogo, Okayama, and Saga, this musical drama promises a thought-provoking experience that challenges traditional views on social and legal systems.
