Casting has been announced for new play One Small Step, the first of two new Japanese plays getting their UK premiere in London this autumn.
Written and directed by Takuya Kato, and translated by Andrew Eglinton and Mika Eglinton, One Small Step plays the Charing Cross Theatre from 27 September to 9 October 2024.
Mark Takeshi Ota (My Neighbour Totoro) as Takashi, Susan Momoko Hingley (The Garden Of Words) as Narumi, and Jay Faisca (The Bodyguard) as The Man (voiceover) will star in this world premiere production.
One Small Step joins Tattooer in a short season of new UK-Japan collaboration projects featuring up-and-coming Japanese writers and directors, produced by Umeda Arts Theater.
In the play, Takashi and Narumi are a married couple, working for a major contractor on a project to migrate humans to the Moon where a city is being established where humanity’s ideal new life can begin. But they suddenly encounter an unexpected setback to their plans…
The creative team for the show also includes Set & Costume Designer Milla Clarke; Lighting Designer Andrew Exeter; and Sound Designer Max Pappenheim.
One Small Step is at Charing Cross Theatre from 27 September to 9 October 2024.
