Kazue Horimasu

Theatre Director Workshop Facilitator Adapter Dramaturge

I, Kazue Horimasu (she/her), am a Japanese theatre director who has worked in Japan for over 15 years. I have created text-based performances by analysing the text deeply. I am susceptible to actors' voices and am particularly good at workshops focusing on the voice. I am also good at workshops where the unconscious part of the actor becomes active.

TAKEUCHI LESSON (Japan, 12years) Under the late TAKEUCHI, Toshiharu*, I continued theatrical activities with people involved in disability education, psychology, linguistics and philosophy, singers, dancers, actors, acupuncturists　and others mainly involved with the body and language. We also performed but basically explored the relationship between words and the body.
