This study investigates the challenges and prospects of "open" regional co-creation within the Toyooka Theater Festival, aiming to propose a model for sustainable operation based on empirical findings. Through participation in the ticket operations and interviews with citizens and organizers, the research integrates internal and external perspectives to analyze how the festival fosters social capital within the community. The findings highlight three core issues: insufficient and inaccessible public relations, limited options for citizen participation beyond viewing or volunteering, and operational difficulties in information sharing and staffing (reliance on external personnel). These challenges result in the festival being perceived as an "external event" rather than a shared community endeavor. The study's practical trial—the creation of card-type flyers—demonstrated that while approachable design lowers psychological barriers, it must be combined with placement along residents' daily life paths to encourage actual engagement. To address this, the research proposes the "Gachi Fringe Concept"—formalizing small, local, self-organized performances (like those from dance studios or local clubs) as an official-yet-independent fringe program. This strategy aims to broaden the spectrum of involvement and transform the festival from a venue for viewing into a sustainable platform for community relationship-building. |
