Toshiki Okada (chelfitsch)

(Tokio)

Super Premium Soft Double Vanilla Rich

Mousonturm Saal

Performance/Choreography

Oscillating between the spoken word and physical theatre, Okada leaves his occupation with Fukushima behind and in his newest piece, turns his attention   to the popular 24/7 convenience stores found at every corner in Tokyo. Here an imperturbable availability of food and consumer items collides with lonely night crawlers, gossipy staff, culinary yearnings and the quest for the perfect vanilla ice cream. An extremely amusing tragedy about human forsakenness and turbo-capitalistic irreversibility, imbedded in a nerve-racking constant stream of Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier.
