This academy was opened in October 2014 with the playwright and director Kensuke Yokouchi as the head of the academy in order for Kanagawa Prefecture to develop human resources for performing arts. We will nurture performing arts artists through vocal music, dance, acting, practical lessons by leading instructors in each field, achievement presentations, and summer hall performances (musicals).
