KAKUREGA/隠れ家

KAKUREGA (隠れ家: Japanese; “hideout”) delves into the psychological hideouts that keep artists sane while continuing their pursuits of artistic creation. Through two 30-minute simultaneously running pieces, each in an izakaya and an art studio, this participative project invites those who crave not only an intrusive peek into artists’ headspaces, but also the possibilities between audience and performer.

From the Director
“At this point, it’s impossible to decide whether hiding or creating feels better. I’m obsessed with both. The cycle repeats itself, enough to make me leave my hideout not remembering anything. There is also a blurred line between creating and hiding where both can happen concurrently. To navigate through these clashes is something I still struggle with and loathe. Devising KAKUREGA makes me want to crawl into my hideout and never come out again (haha).”

Content Warning
KAKUREGA depicts themes of violence, substance abuse, self-harm & suicide. Loud sounds, bright lights, and strong language are used. Real food is served, although audiences can opt out by letting our Front-of-House personnel know. Audience discretion is advised. For mature audiences.
