The Story of a Tiger
The Japanese premiere of a solo theatre performance by Malawian actor Mbene Mwambene will take place at Theatre X, Ryogoku, Tokyo on Monday, 5th of December.
This is the first time in Tokyo Theatre X’s 25- year history to present an African theatre practitioner and Theater X have used this opportunity to provide Seibo- a Japanese registered NGO who support school feeding programmes in Malawi- to allow the audience to find out more about Malawi and their activities after the live performance.
The “Story of a Tiger” was originally written in 1975 by Italian actor-playwright Dario Fo after a visit to China.
The actor Mwambene re-contextualises this solo theatre peformance to modern-day Malawi, telling a tale of courage and strength in the face of adversity. The performance in English will have Japanese sub-titling and the after performance discussion will take place in Japanese.
Tickets on sale from Theater X website for 1,000 yen each (500 yen for High school students)- Free seating.
