A Hilarious Perspective on War

‘Announce It! The General Headquarters!’ takes a bold look at the absurdity of wartime communication during the Pacific War. The script, written and directed by Tomoyuki Tomisaka, focuses on the struggles faced by the military's reporting department as they grapple with the obligation to convey misinformation for the so-called “Greater Good.” It’s a painful homage to the tangled web of lies that characterized official wartime announcements.

Centre stage are dedicated reporters trying to justify their decisions. They face the unenviable task of spinning a historic defeat into something palatable for the public. Expect scenes filled with lively debates that vacillate between moral imperatives and the daunting pressure to present a narrative that boosts morale—regardless of its truthfulness.

Tomisaka aims to deliver the most entertaining war-related production amid a plethora of anniversary events commemorating the end of World War II. He believes it’s crucial that younger generations engage with this unique narrative driven by both humor and historical context. For just 1,000 yen for high school students and 3,000 yen for “Kinkyō” seating, anyone can be a part of this enlightening experience!

A Proven Success

Originally staged in 2019 at the Ekimae Theater, ‘Announce It!’ gained critical acclaim with 1,200 attendees and numerous accolades, including Best Production and Best Actor at the Kadoma International Film Festival 2020. Agarisk Entertainment has positioned this production as a high point within their lineup, fueled by Tomisaka's innovative vision.

The ensemble cast featuring prominent talent from Agarisk Entertainment and other recognized companies promises a captivating performance. Actors include Ryo Tsuwano, Jun Yabuki, and Takehito Asakusa, who perfectly channel the quirks of their characters through a satirical lens.
