Overview
"Following 'Butoh Works I: Nouvelle Tragique', performed in January of the same year, this piece is based on Marquis de Sade's '120 Days of Sodom', translated into Japanese by Shibusawa Tatsuhiko. In Kasai Akira's 'Twilight of the Gods', published on 10 March, he touches on Sade's innocence.
In May 'Dead Beauty: For Edgar Allan Poe' was performed as 'Butoh Works III', and shortly afterwards, Kasai temporarily closed Tenshikan to study eurythmy in Germany."
