Shin Somegoro is a 12-year-old junior high school first-year junior high school student, his personality and dialogue were firm, and his words were filled with heart, and his sadness and appreciation for Benkei were conveyed. Not only Togashi of Mamoru Seki of Ataka, but also the audience is moved by Benkei, a home art played by Shin Koshiro, and trying to protect Yoshitsune with his life.

There were many people dressed in fine weather, the lobby was gorgeous, and it was a moment when I was lost in the space of Edo. Shin Koshiro is on the stage with the dream of spreading Kabuki to the world, and it seems that the future of entertainment for the common people will be opened brightly.

 

The Kabukiza January performance will be announced until January 26, and the February performance will be announced.
