This article examines the relationship between the cultural policy of the Japanese Colonial Government in Shanghai and the Shanghai Ballet Russes, with reference to reports on the Shanghai Ballet Russes published in the Tairiku Shinpō during the period 1940 to 1945. At that time, the Nazis in Germany were utilizing their dance bureau to gain publicity through dance performances. There were also close ties between many contemporary dancers and the Nazis. In other words, the Nazis used the 'dancing bodies' of dancers as a means to achieve their nation-building objectives. When Japan allied with Germany, Japanese people were attracted to German culture, and thus it is possible that the cultural policy of Japan in Shanghai was influenced by Nazi policy. Shanghai was regarded as the most international city in Asia during this period. Consequently, the Japanese Colonial Government in Shanghai considered that the Shanghai Ballet Russes, which originated from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev, would be able to disseminate Japanese cultural successfully. In addition, the Japanese Colonial Government expected Masahide Komaki, the only Japanese member of the Shanghai Ballet Russes, to represent The Shanghai Ballet Russes. To this end, Komaki played the lead in the performances of The Shanghai Ballet Russes and temporarily gained popularity in 1943. As the tide of the war turned against Japan, however, reports on the Shanghai Ballet Russes were no longer seen in Tairiku Shinpō from onwards, and Asian folk dances were instead utilized for nation-building objectives. The Shanghai Ballet Russes was in the limelight from 1941 to 1943 as 'dancing body representations of the media' to advertise the cultural policy of the Japanese Colonial Government widely. Similarly, it could be said that Masahide Komaki's body as a 'dance medium' worked for the Japanese Colonial Government.
