About this event
THE NEWSPAPER, a social satire comedy troupe that crafts and stages sketches based on constantly evolving daily news, is coming to Ito. It is not uncommon for breaking news to make it straight to the stage, and through sketches portraying various characters played by expressive actors, you may catch a glimpse of the true nature of society hidden behind the news while sharing a laugh. In particular, political sketches centered on impersonations of successive prime ministers are their specialty, showcasing a unique and inimitable style. With a commitment to live performances drawing on the news that has remained unchanged since their formation, their performance—always living in the present moment—is a must-see.
