We would like to ask for your kind support in developing the World Theatre Festival Shizuoka into a further multifaceted and sustainable international theater festival.
World Theatre Festival Shizuoka, held by SPAC every year in the holidays from late April to early May, is a festival allowing visitors to experience excellent performing arts in Japan and abroad, as well as providing an occasion when artists, audiences, and regional residents have direct exchange beyond the national or regional borders. It is a representative international theater festival in Japan and is also attracting attention from abroad.
Now we have experienced the COVID-19 pandemic, the value of meeting people face-to-face and the role of culture and the arts that enriches our daily life is becoming even greater. On the other hand, the economic environment to keep holding international theater festivals, such as the surge in travel and transportation expenses or exchange rates, is becoming very harsh.

In light of this situation, we have sought support from companies, groups, and individuals who share the purpose of our festival and have an understanding of culture, the arts, and social contributions. We have received endorsements from the following people, to whom we express our heartfelt gratitude and introduce here.
