About this event
Atsugi Theater Project Next Step 13th Performance: Gekidan Tobiraza presents "Ode to Joy", based on master Shinosuke Tatekawa's original rakugo, scaled up for 2026. This human-interest story mixes laughter and tears as a sloppy hall employee's blunder triggers a miraculous collaboration sparked by a single plate of gyoza dumplings. Moving the audience to tears and joy, this emotional stage production arrives in Atsugi further powered up. Held in the Small Hall of Atsugi City Cultural Hall, three performances will be held across two days: Saturday, December 5 and Sunday, December 6. All seats are reserved, priced at 5,000 yen for both advance purchase and same-day tickets, and 2,000 yen for students aged 25 and under. Tickets go on sale starting Saturday, October 3 through Atsugi City Cultural Hall and Gekidan Tobiraza. Preschool children are not admitted.
