Special Curtain Call for 'ZERO RISE'

From May 2nd to May 17th, 2026, the play 'ZERO RISE' will be staged at the Hikobune Theater. In an exciting development, audiences will have the opportunity to film during a special curtain call after each performance! This groundbreaking initiative allows attendees to use their mobile phones or smartphones to capture moments from the curtain call and share them online with the hashtag `#ゼロライズ観戦`.

This unique opportunity follows a growing trend in live performances where audiences are encouraged to engage with productions through social media. However, it's crucial to note that filming is strictly limited to the curtain call only, with no recording allowed during the rest of the performance. Additionally, devices other than mobile phones or smartphones, such as digital cameras or tripods, are not permitted.

Overview of 'ZERO RISE'

The story of 'ZERO RISE' revolves around the cutthroat nature of a competitive society, especially in sports, where the pressure to be a pure and upright winner is immense. The narrative follows Madoka, a once-promising basketball star who loses everything due to an unfortunate incident during a crucial game and subsequently disappears from the limelight.

However, a turning point arrives in the form of the street basketball league, a chance for Madoka to rise again and reclaim his rightful place as a victor. But it won’t be easy, as he faces strong rivals from well-known districts like Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Shibuya.
