Shibuya culture PROJECT

"Respect" Now the comedy industry ", always sensitive and you want to grow the person who can make the future" under the concept, Human Academy Shibuya School-comedian training course to teach "laughter" first-class faculty is really is opened 5 years on. Currently, while emerged at the forefront of the TV industry as a writer, Yuhei Sato to engage in our laboratory as a lecturer of acting, comedy space representative of the Tokyo, theater D is held regularly, gateway to success basis of the young comedian and the impression of the events "upstart SUPER" championship, about the future of young comedians and comedy present the number of stars, we had said hotly.

- First of all was to look at the "Theater D · upstart SUPER" of today, from the candid impressions.

It came to comedy live I'm a long time, but there was still lot of discovery. But the majority of the performers still young, has a "Spartan X" in the NES game or the story, on the other hand came in Akiba-story dealing with nerd. As far as today, old and new, Do neta is polarization, I felt that. Even so, it is to the people like the geek culture lovers are working in comedy, I was surprised honestly. Do human beings of width has spread from the front of the stage, it was realized that. Yoshimoto Kogyo and other entertainment office and including the school are doing us, the audience a chance to get used to the players has increased dramatically, I think that it's one of the causes. On the other hand, in the recent Tokyo, there is little Jaco for young entertainer that does not belong to the office. In that sense, theater D can say is comedy of the last stronghold in Tokyo, and. Because to appear in theater D loaded with training in the live house TWL in Nakano, to seem to be a kind of brand.

- Of Nari Sato, if there is a point of when you see the young entertainer, please tell me.

It also was originally that the theater born, first go eye to acting skills and Namerashita. I Manzai and control, in order to convey the atmosphere and sense of reality, I think that it is necessary to play properly part or behavior which is not visible. I think you are looking at young people, such as appeared today are conscious ahead to take the laughter will be concentrated, it ended up skipping the important processes such as acting ability and Namerashita to get there I feel like it was. And close your eyes try to follow the script to rely on only the ear, whether it is not what is properly the punch line, I think I can be seen clearly. If you can look at their story to more objectively, I think that more becomes interesting.

- In, Do you have any young people here Do not amazing, and I think the point?

I think that there is everyone courage. I'm also that so, but because like people to come jump into the world of the arts to play the game are pretty, will I have surely bold personality. Try starting to continue if someone on the skin, leave quickly if useless. The former as, fellows, such as entering the world of comedy decide prepared feel like less. "Geido extremely do!" Like a, is there no high sense of threshold is, but I think it is very good in a sense.

- Do you think there is any relationship between the city and the comedy of Shibuya?

Here between the 20-year position as "Asobihoke want Mote to girls", I think that young boy comedian who brilliantly embodies a certain desire to anyone began to appear. In Shibuya, to should unique human resources in the fashionable young with such a sense is also one after another gathered now, young people coming out of the region as well, and at present there is a tendency to aim the Shibuya than Shinjuku Listen. To a certain theater D nor Yoshimoto ∞ hall, Shibuya I think that it is a treasure house of human resources.

Live "upstart SUPER" the first time you two of the shining Gorman craftsman to champion.
