Takashi Shallow's 'Hitorikko'

Hitorikko traverses Takashi Shallow's memories. Memories like waiting in a dentist's office, watching television, exercising in gym class, and discovering your parents' record collection. Shallow focuses on aspects of the mundane that, in retrospect, may not have been normal. Shallow's aunt, for example, recorded most of the television he watched growing up and mailed it to Chicago from Kyoto as a sort of brick of VHS tapes that were heavily bundled in layers upon layers of packing tape and shipping documents. Shallow intends to highlight the visual and sonic characteristics of both the universally relatable and completely idiosyncratic aspects of these memories over the course of several acts that resemble a play.
