I have been involved with Tokyo International Players since 2015. As well as being a board member and an advisor, I have worked both on stage and off stage for the company. I will be directing their October 2022 Production of a new musical as part of their Cozy Reads programme.
Founded in 1896, Tokyo International Players (TIP) is a theatrical organization comprised primarily of the Tokyo foreign community, which provides quality English language entertainment for international audiences.
