The Sakura Company takes good care of its members. It has the power to turn lowlife rat bags into super humans whose mission is to make the world a better place. Well, that's what it claims. But behind the alluring facade lies a cult that dupes and brainwashes its followers into believing that they're special. Along the way, it sucks their bank accounts dry. And once you join, there's no way out.
Sakura Sayer - Sakura Drives You Mad from Osaka-based Theatre Group Gumbo is a black comedy about the proliferation of new religions. Under the direction of Kayo Tamura, the troupe delivers a serious message using its brand of wacky humour and physical theatre.
