F The participatory program is meant to be enjoyed children, from infants to elementary school students, and adults, together, backed by musicians performing live. The choreography and direction are by Shinozaki Memi, a dancer and choreographer formerly with the Strange Kinoko Dance Company. The performance is by the Dance & Nursery!! dance team, plus Sakamoto Miu and Kunihiro Kazuki. Nagayama Yuko, architect and mother of two, designed the space. Dance & Nursery!! will continue to be held at festivals and in public facilities throughout Japan as a platform for exploring new ways to work while raising children to meet our society’s needs.
