Overview
Dedicated to Hijikata in commemoration of 50 years of butoh, this stage adaptation of Atsushi Tanigawa's "Labyrinth of Body" follows "The Topography of the Fantasy". Using the "subtle distance between myself and my strange body", Waguri tackles the labyrinth that is his self. Together with contemporary dancer Seki, he created this work for six female butoh dancers using Hijikata's butoh-fu [butoh notation]. Although he continued his work touring overseas and performing new pieces after this, this was Waguri's last performance in Japan with his company Kozensha.
