A beautiful water garden with lotus leaves reemerges
Sankai Juku has consistently created new works and toured extensively, in more than 48 countries since its founding. Le Monde wrote about “Kagemi-Beyond the Metaphors of the Mirrors” as “Spectators are even absorbed in the very fine ramification of movement. Strange processes, between hypnosis and vigilance, that invite spectators, to the very heart of mystery of dance. In a forest of giant and immaculate lotus leaves . . . a cycle of life in its slow and incessant transformation. The celebration of Kagemi offers the viewer the fruit of dazzling meditation.”
Now it’s re-created for the first time since its world premiere in 2000. Please enjoy the world of Sankai Juku.
