Hello~!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time, we would like to introduce you to a rather mysterious and warm space called \u201cHitsujino Theater\u201d in Fujieda City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

……, you may be wondering, “Was there ever a theater in Fujieda? You may be thinking, “Was there ever a theater in Fujieda?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, there is a theater in Fujieda. I am also an actor in the theater company \u201cUnique Point,\u201d which is based in Fujieda (it says so in my profile, yes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theaters” may be a rare item that does not often appear in articles introducing local regions, but this time I would like to share with you the charm of this theater!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s HITSUJI THEATER\uff1f<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now, \u201cHitsujino Theater\u201d is a small and cozy theater that just opened in February 2025 in Fujieda City 1-chome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has about 40 seats. It is compact, but that is why it is a \u201ctheater where you can see the audience face to face,\u201d which makes it much closer to the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally, Unique Point Theater Company operated a theater called \u201cShirako No Gekijo\u201d in the Shirako district along the old Tokaido Highway, but due to various \u201cadult\u201d circumstances (laugh), we decided to move to a new location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The current \u201cHitsujino Gekijo\u201d was created by renovating the former office building of the Fujieda Ezaki Shimbun. The interior was almost entirely DIY!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is truly a “handmade theater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Tokyo, there are a number of small theaters of this size, but having a theater of this size in a regional city like Fujieda is actually quite rare. Theater fans should check it out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performances<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

So, what is the actual performance like? First of all, you will wait in the lobby until the show starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First of all, you will wait in the lobby until the show starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About 10 minutes before the show, a staff member will guide you into the theater. The seats are close to each other, so you feel a little nervous even before the show starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the show, some people leave quickly, while others stay in the lobby to mingle with the performers and staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The atmosphere is more like a \u201csecret base\u201d than a theater, so it is interesting to be close to the performers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theater Logo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The logo of Hitsujino Gekijo, which is also cute!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was designed by Mutsumi Shinde (emem design office). There are other types of logos other than the above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also designed the Unique Point logo, the previous \u201cShiroko No Gekijo\u201d logo, and the visuals for the \u201cFujieda No Drama Festival\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The logo is simple, but it has a \u201csheepish\u201d feel to it, and there is something theatrical and mysterious about it. His sense of style shines through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future Activities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We plan to continue various activities, including performances by Unique Point Theatre Company, events and workshops that emphasize the importance of connecting with the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theater becomes more interesting not only when you watch it, but also when you \u201cget involved\u201d with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope to loosen the boundary between \u201caudience\u201d and \u201ccreator\u201d a bit and make the theater a place where everyone can enjoy theater together… This theater is filled with such thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, \u201cHitsujino Theatre\u201d is a little special place in Fujieda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
