Japan's tallest Noh theater (Ginza Noh Theater)

[Tachibana] 09:00 on October 2, 2014

The other day, an acquaintance appeared, so I went to Ginza Noh Theater. Located alongside Sony Building along outer moat Street (Ginza 6-chome 5-15).

This Noh theater is located on the 8th floor of a building characterized by windows, so it is the highest Noh theater.

Furthermore, since Ginza is located in a high land price, it is the tallest Noh theater in Japan in two ways.

The Kanze Noh Theater, located in Shoto, Shibuya Ward, is now in the redevelopment complex on the site of the site of Matsuzakaya in 2016.
It seems that it will be relocated with the completion of the building.

 

Ginza is the land where the residence of the Kinharu family, a Noh actor directly under the Shogunate during the Edo period.
In the future, when speaking of Noh, the age of Ginza may come.
