'Kazakoshi' is a new production touring 12 countries throughout the world for two years celebrating Wadaiko Artist Art Lee's 20th Anniversary in 2013,and Wadaiko Tokara's 10th Anniversary in 2014.
'Kazakoshi' is the mountain wind which flows across the mountaintop Mt. Fuetsu, bringing a billowing mist onto the Inadani valley from which we gather our strength and determination to share throughout the world.
Not simply a taiko performance, 'Kazakoshi' is an expression of the powerfully flowing, yet jazzy style of performance for which Tokara has become known.

They are so bad that no-one really wants them, not even his neighbour (who thinks he should give up and get a real job!). Then one night, two tiny visitors climb in through the window and start cutting and stitching and gluing...and Sam's life is never quite the same again! Following their sell-out shows, The Enormous Turnip, Little Red Hen and 3 Little Pigs, the inescapably eccentric Stuff and Nonsense Theatre Company return with an up-to-date, size 13½ retelling of everyone's favourite story...
Varmints is a brand new dance-theatre show for everyone over the age of eight. It tells the poignant tale of one small creature's stuggle to preserve a world in danger of being lost forever. Every day the city grows larger and the noise grows louder, until there is so much noise that no-one can hear themselves think. This exhilarating new show is choreographed by Wilkie Branson (Champloo Dance Company) and directed by Sally Cookson, who most recently collaborated on the brilliantly energetic Christmas show, BOING!
Performances at 3pm and 7pm. www.travellinglighttheatre.org.uk...
