Goro Mitsu, who returned to Japan-Phoenix Festival April Daikabuki-Kabukiza Shinkai Hall 1st Anniversary

1. April 13, 2014 09:00

Kabukiza, which has been one year since its new opening, is still bustling. The topic of this month is "Goro Mitsu's Return". I came back to the Kabukiza Theater seven months after I fell ill. It's been since August Noryo Kabuki. The performance is "Senju Saru". When Goro Mitsu appears on the flower path, great applause from the crowded seats. When I heard this great applause with Goro Mitsu, who became a little thinner, I was surprised. The next seat is also taking out the handkerchief. The cuteness of the monkey played by the son, Minosuke, who became even more splendid, Magoro, the female daimyo, and the child role that applauds each time he moves. I'm really happy to be able to see the sharp and cheerful appearance of Goro Mitsu, one of the best dancers in the Kabuki world, who can not seem to be post-sick. This month, I took care of it only in the daytime and took a rest for a while. The other performances are a gorgeous dance newly created to commemorate the first anniversary of the opening of the festival, "Shushun Phoenix Festival", and the stage art is a luxurious version called Toshio Matsuo. Finally, "Shinnaka Sonezaki" where Tojuro Sakata works for "Ichisei Ichidai". I am deeply moved to think that this is the last time to see Fujijuro's first performance more than 1300 times on stage. Even so, what is the youth of 82-year-old Fujijuro? ・・・・

The idea of the Phoenix Maru of the Zamon was Ouchi Fukuchi, the first lord of the first stage, but when he built a new mansion in Ikenohata, he liked the Phoenix Maru related to Horyuji Temple, which was used as a nail hide in the parlor ("Kabukiza 5th generation}").

The night part is "Ichijo Daizotan", "Women Date" and "Hairyu Shinzo".

It was also announced that Nizaemon's return to June. All you have to do is wait for the recovery of Fukusuke, whose name has been extended.
