Drawing on her new book, Kristin Surak (SOAS) explores the relationship between culture and nation

London International Festival of Theatre (LIFT) will present the UK premiere of Super Premium Soft Double Vanilla Rich, a new work by Japanese theatre director Toshiki Okada. Set in a supermarket, the play explores Japanese consumerism using dark humour, dreamlike movement and a striking soundscape of J-pop and JS Bach. The show will be performed in Japanese with English surtitles, and a Q&A with Okada’s theatre company chelfitsch will follow the performance on Wednesday 11 June.

This online course is for teachers with a basic level of Japanese who would like to build up their language skills.
