Tadashi Suzuki Career

Suzuki became involved in the Angura ("underground") theater movement in Japan in the early 1960s, and founded a theater troupe called the Waseda Little Theatre, which focused on the physical talents of star actress Kayoko Shiraishi. It was with the Waseda Little Theatre that Suzuki began to develop his Suzuki Method of actor training.

Suzuki's works include On the Dramatic Passions”, The Trojan Women, Dionysus, Vision of Lear, Cyrano de Bergerac, and Madame de Sade, among others.

Besides productions with his own company, he has directed several international collaborations, such as The Tale of Lear (1988), co-produced and presented by four leading regional theatres in the US, many of whose actors had studied with him; King Lear, presented with the Moscow Art Theatre; Oedipus Rex, co-produced by Cultural Olympiad and the Düsseldorf Schauspielhaus; and Electra, produced by Ansan Arts Center / Arco Arts Theatre in Korea and the Taganka Theatre in Russia.

He relocated his company from Tokyo to the remote mountain village of Toga in 1976. The Toga Art Park now comprises six theaters, rehearsal facilities, offices, lodgings, and restaurants. It continues to host a summer and winter season of performances, symposiums, workshops and competitions.
