Kyoto Experiment: Kyoto International Performing Arts Festival 2019

This is the tenth edition of the Kyoto-based international performing arts festival, presenting radical examples of theatre and dance from around the world at theatres in the city each autumn ever since its launch in 2010. Welcoming globally prominent artists from Japan and overseas, it strives to cut across conventional divisions of genre and category in a highly diverse lineup that freely mixes not only dance and theatre but also visual art and music. As part of its fundamental mission, the festival also engages actively in developing and premiering new work in collaboration with artists. It further aspires to be an international performing arts platform serving as an experimental place for creativity and exchange.
