THEATRE M

Theatre M is a project to create a theater.
The hosts of this theater space are Miho (the mother) and Miri (the daughter).
While staying here, they will encounter people, objects, animals, and plants, and with the generous help of those around them, they will build the theater.
This space aims to be both a place for living and a place for creative expression.
Everyone is welcome here ̶ from small children and the elderly to animals.
In this space, small creative projects, rehearsals, and performances will take place, along with karaoke. People will gather to share meals and even take naps.
