Creating as a collective, FAIFAI are presenting artwork that is new, amusing, powerful and touching for any audience in the world. Our style gives equality and freedom to our members’ vast array of ideas, values and expressive talents. We believe that not only theatrical pieces but everything that surrounds them are part of FAIFAI, and thus promote our work as a “space” to facilitate communication and deeper local exchange with people we meet. In order to share the diversity we create with younger people and their families, we are actively reaching out to children and students.
