Itto Sakai
Theater director, playwright, producer
Born in 1992 in Tokyo, Itto Sakai creates places for freedom that release people from social roles, positions, our affiliations, and the norms of the community. He runs “not acting” workshops that confront the person in front of you and examine one-on-one relationships.
Since spring 2020, he has been based in Toyooka in Hyogo Prefecture, where he works as a coordinator for the fringe program of the Toyooka Theater Festival.
Lived in Berlin for one year from 2017. Traveled to 11 countries, mainly in Western Europe, visiting theaters and museums.
