This is the singing and dancing story of the beginning of Japanese mythology by Ekotumi. Female god, Izanami and male god, Izanagi have given birth to Japan by their marriage. This story told from the perspective of Izanami. Her life was filled with love and joy, and death and sorrow.... 'IZANAMI' from 'New Translation Kojiki series', a musical play and art performance that has been performed by Ekotumi in Japan and abroad to high acclaim.
