On September 11, 2001, four commercial airliners were hijacked, two of which crashed into the north and south towers of the World Trade Center in New York, causing both buildings to collapse without a trace. What did the four firefighters who died that day while trying to save many people see, hear, and think afterwards? Were they ever reunited with their families and friends who had been separated from them? This is a true story that transcends life and death, a story that anyone can experience.

Overcoming the difference of racial, ethnic and religious difference, the Inamori Theatrical Group was established in March 2010, seeking for realizing the peaceful world with no conflicts based upon the recognition of us as Earthian Family living on the same earth. After that, the name was changed to the INAMORI Art Project Group (IAPG) in January 2012. In September 2012, IAPG made its first performance, "SAIKAI - REUNITED - Vow of HIROSHIMA -". IAPG has five units to promote its activities; Play Unit, Music Unit, Dance Unit, Art Unit, and Taiko Unit. Members from wide renege of age groups are working on these activities at the side of work and studies. In the theatrical company performances, these five units get together and perform as one general and synchronized art work.
Each of us as a human being has "differences" with each other. The differences in gender, nations of birth, human races, skin colors, religions, ways of thinking, good points, and weak points. Nothing must be the same each other. However, there is only one common thing among human beings. It is "LOVE". Human heart wishing for happiness of someone else other than myself, the heart of "sharing" feeling like the suffering and sorrow of someone else like myself, and rejoicing like my own joy. It is the heart of forgiveness, thinking that even if someone makes a mistake, I am not perfect like God, too. "LOVE" is the human heart of "Sharing, Making Alive, and Forgiving".

If we notice it, we should not be able to destruct the environment. When we think about the next way the humans should go, I think it is to unify as one beyond the differences. When religious denominations are united as one acknowledging their differences and the meaning of their existence, I think all the problems will be melted in the idea called "love". At the time of the Meiji Restoration, Japan had closed the country to foreign commerce, but Ryoma Sakamoto and others raised the awareness of the stance of Japan in the world. Likewise, I would like to promote the awareness that we are living on the earth in the universe. When we stand on such a viewpoint, we cannot kill each other. At this moment, I wish to ask a favor of the religious leaders of the world. Beyond the boundary, now at this time, I would like you to join hands. I would like you to extend your hand from the side of the leader first.

Although there may be pointed out that the transmigration is a Buddhism thought and such thought is not in Christianity, we do not want to convey a Christian doctrine, but if there is a reincarnation, nothing was more foolish than the countries being opposed to each other and fighting for each other we thought. It is because probably we were once born in the country which we thought to be an enemy country. Read more
American terrorist attacks, that people all over the world was shocked. The incident was not the case of others, but it also carved deep shock and sorrow memory in the Japanese as well. Back in 2012, we visited St. Paulfs Church in New York where was the base for rescue operations for 9.11. There stored a lot of relics of the firefighters who passed away at their posts. Taking pride in their mission, those men fulfilled their duties. There is their chagrin, there is sadness of the bereaved families. Devoting our deep condolences to them, we produced this play.

What we would like to tell is not only shouting loud, "Antiwar." With a beloved family, merely living peacefully without life being threatened. Is it a small wish common to all people of the world? I would like you to notice the common thought. Then, wars which wound each other will surely disappear. Neither hatred nor anger, but prayer for peace. It is the message we would like to convey.
