In the fall of 2020, the Tokyo Metropolitan Theater will perform "Midsummer Night's Dream" directed by Hideki Noda and Silviu Purcalete to commemorate the 30th anniversary of its opening . This work was premiered in 1992 under the title of "Hideki Noda's Midsummer Night's Dream" by Hideki Noda, and became a big topic due to a bold adaptation to Shakespeare's masterpiece and a gorgeous cast competition. So to speak, it is "Noda version" "A Midsummer Night's Dream". The shocking work will be revived with a new production.
