Background
Jean Reno has long held a special connection with Japan, famously starring in the 2001 film Wasabi which was set in Tokyo.

The play blends elements of drama, philosophy, and humor, delivered with Reno’s characteristic gravitas.
The significance of this tour lies in its nationwide reach, moving beyond just Tokyo to bring high-level international theater to various prefectures. By collaborating with director Ladislas Chollat, Reno ensures that the production maintains the rigorous standards of French contemporary theater while remaining accessible to a global audience. The inclusion of live piano performance elevates the spoken word, making it a multi-sensory experience that honors the traditions of both European and Japanese appreciation for the arts.
