Interested in traditional Japanese performance? Does Noh theater intrigue you? Then this two-day event might be exactly what you’re looking for, with Noh shows put on by talented performers, and workshops where you can learn all about the traditional art. It’s even great for non-Japanese-speakers, since there will be English translators/subtitles throughout.
The whole event follows the natural themes of “the mountains” and “the sea”, featuring performances of “Kurozuka (The Black Mound)” and “Funa-Benkei (Benkei in a Boat).” Those who want to get a little deeper into the art can participate in workshops before the performances, on handling props or playing instruments for Noh.
