Akito Teshima continues to take on various challenges as both an artist and an actor. At the center of it all is "music".

This is a talk event where Akito Teshima, who has sincerely faced both music and his roles, talks about the behind-the-scenes of his creation and his honest feelings about facing what is right in front of him now.

Looking back on his experience as Robin Blake in "Lady Bess" in which he is currently appearing, and his trajectory as Ronan in "1789: The Lovers of Bastille", he will touch upon the "moments when roles and songs connect" and the possibilities of expression that have expanded from there. Ahead of his upcoming tour in May, he will unravel his "inner self" in life-sized words.
