About


     Any and all fans of Japanese (and more specifically, Tokyo) small theatre. We're not here 'cause we love Takarazuka, we're not here because we can't get the songs from Wicked out of our heads, we're here to extol the wonders of being fans of the up-and-coming Japanese actors and actresses doing their best right under the noses of the populace at large, hoping to hit it big.



     This is [info]butaisatsu, a portmanteau of butai (舞台) meaning "stage/play" and aisatsu (挨拶) meaning "greeting". So what exactly is the purpose of this comm? Let everyone know your favorite entertainer's upcoming shows and events! Simply fill out the simple form provided below to give people the basic details, and that's that! This'll be great help for those of us in Japan or traveling to Japan any time soon to stop by and catch a show, get hooked on someone new, and help the foreign fan community grow and grow! There's always room for more fans, right? Of course right!



Hopefully this'll let anyone who isn't that familiar with Japanese still post the latest info on their favorite actor or actress's upcoming ventures! We'd of course prefer as much of this information in English as possible (though it's far more helpful to have it in both languages!), and cast members' names can be easily turned up via a google/yahoo search. This is simply a request, of course, and definitely not required.



     It's never too early or late to post info, so if you've got something, make a post! If you're worried someone else has preempted you and already posted the news, feel free to check the tags via the link at the top of the comm's front page; all posts will be tagged by a mod with the cast names and theater, for ease of sifting through!



     Right here! Post any time, no need to be shy! We're a new community and more than happy to help you if you're unsure of just what the heck you're supposed to post, or if you're not confident enough in your Japanese to translate anything.



     I'm hoping that over time, this comm will grow to be the [info]gekipuri of Tokyo Small Theatre; at present, there's really nowhere to go to access an English-language compiled list of information on upcoming shows starring small theatre actors only vaguely associated with TeniMyu or BuriMyu, which sucks for amassing a foreign fan base for all these talented guys and girls who are slipping by under the radar. Don't be shy about posting; if you've got some news, share it here!
