熊野・新宮の医師・大星誠之助は、日露戦争開戦の年に洋食レストラン「太平洋食堂」をオープンした。それは万民が共に囲む平和の食卓を目指し、人々の生活を洋食献立で改善しようという試みであった。物語はその開店の日から始まる。祝いに招かれた町内の様々な人々が食事をしながら議論をする。そこには僧侶の高萩や、牧師の沖田の姿もあった。アメリカ帰りでドクトルと呼ばれ、町の人々に親しまれていたリベラリストの誠之助は、戦争景気に湧くその頃、反戦を唱え貧者と女性を助けようとする。 彼らは社会主義者である幸徳秋水と交流した為に、苛烈な思想弾圧にみ込まれる。史上最悪の冤罪事件である大逆事件を題材に、魅力的な登場人物をユーモアを交えて描いた歴史大作。

演出は初演時より藤井ごうが行う。藤井は歴史長編を得意とし、群像劇としての「太平洋食堂」を2020年の最終上演には法廷劇として更にダイナミックに進化させた。

Premiered in 2013. Received the Osaka Governor's Award and Best Actor Award at the Kadoma International Film Festival 2021.

Seinosuke Ohboshi, a doctor at Kumano in Shingu, opened a Western restaurant "The Pacific Refreshment Room" in the year of the Russo-Japanese War. It was an attempt to improve people's lives with Western menus, aiming for a peaceful dining table surrounded by all people. The story begins on the day of its opening. Various people in the town invited to celebrate have a discussion while eating. There was also the figure of Takahagi, a priest, and Okita, a pastor.

Seinosuke, a liberalist who was called a doctor returned from the United States and was familiar to the people of the town, tried to help the poor and women by advocating an anti-war at the time of the war boom. They are swallowed by fierce ideological repression because they interact with the socialist Kotoku Shusui. A historical masterpiece depicting attractive characters with humor, based on the worst false accusation case in history, the High Treason Incident.

This production has been directed by Go Fujii since its premiere. Fujii specializes in historical ensemble dramas and has further developed the final production of "The Pacific Refreshment Room" in 2020 as a courtroom drama in a more dynamic way.
