Led by director Motoi Miura, CHITEN is a theater company that also operates UNDER-THROW, an atelier for creation and presentation, and TUPPERWAY, a restaurant where you can stop by before or after a performance. Since 2005, Chiten has been based in Kyoto, where it has traveled to various cities and theaters both in Japan and abroad, spreading the appeal of theater culture that it has brought back from each of its visits.
