I am a director, lyricist and artist of live entertainment, including contemporary Japanese plays and musicals.
Born on July 8, 1985 in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. He won the Grand Prize and the Audience Award at the Japan Directing Association and the Young Directors' Competition.
When he was 17 years old, he dropped out of high school because of his father's disappearance and his doubts about his natural career path. Later, while wandering around, he encountered the theater and has been active ever since. The organization hicopro, which he leads, has co-produced the flagship work with Okinawa and staged it in five cities in Japan: Okinawa, Osaka, Fukuoka, Nagano, and Tokyo. In the Young Directors' Competition organized by the Japan Directing Association, he won a prize for his "Manga-like depiction of life" in which he used music to scoop up the sensations and emotions that emerge and depict people.
It was the first time in the history of the competition to win two awards, the best musical work and the Audience Award. Outside of the company, he is a concert composer/director at the Globe, creating a musical about Vtuber and human beings. Co-produced and directed a fashion show with high school girls at Saitama Super Arena. He has been working with former top stars of the Takarazuka Revue to create musicals as documentaries, and has been involved in a variety of creative activities unconstrained by existing forms of expression.
