[Performance] Mother Astronaut of Matsudo｜Judith Goudsmit & Fiep van Bodegom

Mother Astronaut of Matsudo
by Judith Goudsmit & Fiep van Bodegom
Two writers from the Netherlands present their text inspired by an interview with Naoko Yamazakiwho was born in Matsudo. She was the first Japanese mother in space and the word mother-astronaut, mama-san uchuuhikooshi, was created for her. Using their observations of Matsudo as a starting point, they combine Heian diaries and fifties futuristic poetry from the height of the cold war to travel through time and space. The finalized text will be read by performers from Matsudo in a local cafe Wakamatsu on Saturday May 13 at 18.00.
