This work is based on a true story inspired by the Iroha nursing home in Kagoshima Prefecture. Inspired by the way all the staff worked together to make the wishes of the elderly people, “I want to do this!” come true with the motto “It can’t be helped!”, Fujiwara Tamae (Usagi-za) wrote the script and GOODEARTH planned a nationwide tour. All four previous shows in Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, and the Tokyo homecoming tour were sold out.

The Sapporo performance will carry that same passion and deliver a powerful message to Hokkaido that there are no right answers in life.
