It is impossible to talk about the future of festivals without attending this forum!
The forum will foster discussions on the meaning of holding street theatre festivals and the possibilities that STRANGE SEED SHIZUOKA 2019 carries. Jongseok Kim, formerly a long-term artistic director of internationally acclaimed ”Seoul Street Arts Festival,” will join the panel as a special guest. Examples of various experimental approaches taken in the Seoul Street Arts Festival should serve greatly as a base for discussion of the future of festivals in Japan. It will be a significant experience not only for the festival staffs and artists, but also for the local government officers who are in charge of arts and culture section.
