The Story: Japanese Voice Theatre Brought to Life
Vorlesen, which means “to read in German is a really cool way to experience Japanese theater. It is very different from plays because the people on stage just read from scripts and use their voices to tell the story. They do not use sets or act things out they just use their voices to make you feel like you are in a different world. However, they can make you feel happy or sad. They can make you see pictures in your mind.
The Vorlesen show that is coming in 2026 Vorlesen Funeral Procession of the Black Ribbon is going to be very dark. It will pull you in. The people in the show are all very talented. Some of them are famous while others are just starting out. The Vorlesen production has a group of actors including some who have been doing this for a long time and some who are new, to the scene.
