22, 23 April 2016s150l.jpg 
I had performances of Noriko Baba's opera on 22, 23 April with 2e2m in Paris. It was directed by Mié Coquempot.

We performed a part of "Nopera AOI" in Art×Art×Art ＜Noh×Contemporary Music×Fashion＞ at Hakuju Hall in Tokyo last December. The costume will be designed by Yoshikazu Yamagata (writtenafterwards).

This production will be on tour in France next autumn.
