Yoko Shioya, Artistic Director, Japan Society

Last summer, as Japan Society celebrated its centennial, I spoke with artistic director, Yoko Shioya, at the Society’s beautiful center on East 47th Street in Manhattan. She shared her thoughts on the far-ranging influence of contemporary Japanese performing arts and on the origins and significance of butoh.

Update: Japan Society will present its annual Contemporary Dance Showcase (January 11-12, 2008), featuring cutting-edge dance from Japan and, for the first time, East Asia. For more information, visit http://www.japansociety.org/dance_topic.
