下北沢 本多劇場
「女の平和」は紀元前411年に古代ギリシャ・アテナイで上演されたアリストパネスの喜劇で、今なお世界中で上演されている不朽の名作です。
『不思議な国のエロス』は1965年、浅利慶太の依頼で寺山修司が日生劇場のために書き下ろした「テラヤマ版女の平和」といえる作品ですが、さまざまな事情で未上演となってしまいました。
2014年、この作品を流山児祥が時代劇ミュージカルとして再構成し初演となりました2019年春、台本の全面改訂、新キャストによる「決定版」を本多劇場で上演します。ご期待ください。

Lysistrata by Aristophanes.
It is a comedy first performed in BC411
in Athens, Greece. It is a masterpiece and still performed all over the
world now. The subtitle, Eros in Wonder Land, is a work written
by Shuji Terayama with a request from Keita Asari, then a
director of Theater Company Shiki ( Four Seasons ) in 1965. It may be
called Lysistrata in Terayama Style.
However, it was never performed for some
reasons. Ryuzanji Show rewrote this in a samurai musical drama in 2014.
This time we show you a newborn final piece.
Story
Why on earth do men like FIGHTING?
To us women, there is nothing more silly and ridiculous than wars, which
deprive us of our loved ones, husbands, sons, fathers, brothers,
sweethearts and so on. How can we women stop this long-lasting
war?.......Oh, how about depriving them of ecstasy of THAT?
Never allow them to do THAT! Then they would lose their fighting
spirit and give in.
This is the promise among all of us women. Nobody can break it!
Okay!?
Do you think it will work out and the
peace will be back?
