A queer drag opera based on the Japanese Noh theater Nomori

Following the successful prototype Nomori in Tokyo, the world premiere of Wataru Mukai's queer drag opera The Mirror of Nomori will take place in Vienna. The play is based on the Noh theater Nomori, which is about the mysterious mirror of the demon, with which one can see everything on earth, in heaven and in hell.

The characters belong to a double minority: LGBTQ+ and sex workers.
Every day they ask themselves an existential question:
Why did I come into the world?
To answer this question, they search for the "Mirror of Nomori"...

Wataru Mukai, music, lyrics
Taichi Hiratsuka, musical direction
Miharu Sato, director
