Episode 29 - Isabella Dawis and Tidtaya Sinutoke: Sunwatcher Part 2

In this episode we continue our conversation with Isabella Dawis and Tidtaya Sinutoke about their new musical, Sunwatcher. https://sunwatchermusical.com/
In 1944, a young woman in Tokyo dares to stare at the sun. Though she lives in a city under attack from American bombs – and in a body limited to the role of housewife – Hisako is determined to become an astronomer.
 
Her struggle leads her to the mighty Japanese sun goddess Amaterasu, who is in the midst of her own epic battle and needs a mortal's help. But can Hisako rise to the challenge?

Performed by an all-Asian women and nonbinary cast, with an innovative score featuring electronic live looping and taiko drumming: SUNWATCHER is a new musical about one woman’s extraordinary dedication to the power of observation.

This episode features the song “Butterfly” performed by Isabella Dawis, Gemma Nha, and Anna Hashizume.
