Fantasies of Ito Michio

By: Tara Rodman

Born in Japan and trained in Germany, dancer and choreographer Ito Michio (1893–1961) achieved prominence in London before moving to the U.S. in 1916 and building a career as an internationally acclaimed artist. During World War II, Ito was interned for two years, and then repatriated to Japan, where he contributed to imperial war efforts by creating propaganda performances and performing revues for the occupying Allied Forces in Tokyo. Throughout, Ito continually invented stories of voyages made, artists befriended, performances seen, and political activities carried out—stories later dismissed as false. Fantasies of Ito Michio argues that these invented stories, unrealized projects, and questionable political affiliations are as fundamental to Ito’s career as his ‘real’ activities, helping us understand how he sustained himself across experiences of racialization, imperialism, war, and internment. Tara Rodman reveals a narrative of Ito’s life that foregrounds the fabricated and overlooked to highlight his involvement with Japanese artists, such as Yamada Kosaku and Ishii Baku, and global modernist movements. Rodman offers “fantasy” as a rubric for understanding how individuals such as Ito sustain themselves in periods of violent disruption and as a scholarly methodology for engaging the past.

Tales of Tara

The Awakening

By: Tara Shen

Tara's awakening felt like an emotional roller-coaster at moments. This story of a spiritual awakening as her past that was repressed surfaces and rocks her world. Tara realizes that all is happening for a reason, and she believes she will come through it. She had faith in the process and many guides. The foundation of her world is ripped out from under her. The present challenges she faces of violence, her divorce and death of her mother hardly compare to her horrific past that she is reliving. She pieces together the truth of her past as memories from the past are triggered by violence in the present day.
