お父さんの恋(ja)

　The latest work by writer Mayumi Nakatani and director Kyoichi Itagaki, who have steadily gained popularity for their sad and warm comedies Beautiful Sunday, Paper Marriage and This Time for Loving Wives in the Third Stage SHOWCASE series, will make its first appearance at the Parco Theatre this spring. 　Set in the everyday life of contemporary Japan, the play carefully and carefully depicts the strengths, weaknesses and hidden sides of the characters. The seemingly serious story, lightly wrapped in a great sense of comedy, will make you laugh, feel sad, and feel sorry for yourself as you are drawn into the world, and in the end, you will love all the characters. 　A very orthodox, yet unlikely comedy. Well-made, but never scheduled, this play is sure to satisfy you beyond your expectations. We are proud to present "Father's Love - Family Tale" in the hope that more and more people will experience the happiness of watching a play. Please look forward to it.
