How to enjoy Kabuki

[Yuyama also only] July 21, 2015 14:00

It's hot every day.

Is it near the end of the rainy season? Let's kill time in a cool place during the hot summer.

It may be a nearby library, but this month I tried Kabuki.

 I was very busy last month and I completely forgot to get a ticket!

 I had time, so when I saw the Kabukiza ticket on the Kabukiza ticket for the daytime performance "Genji store (Genji store)" and "Spider thread" and "Spider thread"! No seats available! 

 Then "Cinema Kabuki".

 "109 Cinemas" was made in Futago-tama, and it was very close, so I went out. I watch opera every season in the metropolitan Live Viewing movie, but Cinema Kabuki was the first time. The good or bad in a movie is that you can hear all the voices, as well as operas. On the main stage, you can see that the volume of voice is different. The performance is "Yoshizo Sannin". I enjoyed it in the cool and beautiful building.

 

 But~! That's right! If you stand up, you can see the main stage.

 Is it okay if it's an hour before the sale of the standing ticket? I went out a few days later and lined up. I saw it throughout the day.

 The first act is "Minamiso Satomi Hakkenden", but since the time is not long, it is patient with standing. Most customers will return after seeing one act. Foreign people with blond hair just come to Kabuki experience. The second and third acts sat in the center.

  I saw the performance I wanted to see, and the performance was quite good. It was a half day of satisfaction.

 But it's been a long time since I had a standing seat. Once a student. After that, when Muty was conducting in Scalar, Milan, I bought it once from an Italian duff shop. It's okay because I was able to sit in the seat, but I guess I'm so young that I can see Kabuki's three acts while standing. Don't forget to buy an advance sale for September's "Previous Hagi"!

 

 

 

The taste of Japanese soba and the monument of Ginza brick

[Yuyama also only] July 9, 2015 09:00

 When the blog was posted for the first time in a long time, I was asked to appear on the radio of Chuo FM. It's still before the broadcast, but the recording was in the middle of last month. From the story of a blog article, for some reason, "B-grade gourmet?" The topic changed, and "On my trip to Chiba, I stopped by" Soba Yoshi ". I buy a meal ticket at a vending machine and carry the finished product from the counter to the seat by myself at an inexperienced cheap soba restaurant. It is fresh, the vegetable tempura of Kakiage soba is delicious, and the soup stock is moderately satisfactory. It was interesting to bring the soba inoguchi next to the counter and put it in.' I talked like that. In Tokyo, I heard that there was "Sobayoshi" near "Mitsukoshi Main Store", so I thought I would stop by after recording. I love it again! I heard that there was a monument to the Fifth Fukuryu Maru at Tsukiji Market, but I wasn't aware of where it was in the fish market that I went out several times. I'm going to go out.

 

  It was right next to the main gate of Tsukiji Market.Tsukiji Main Gate Daigo Fukuryu Maru. jpg

 

  An acquaintance who temporarily returned to Japan from France said, "I'm in Ginza now. I want to eat delicious Japanese soba! "I received a call saying "Soba Yoshi" and started eating soba at Meigetsuan "Tanakaya" in Ginza.Ginza Tanaka. jpg

 

 "Natsuno" used to buy some chopsticks for Japanese souvenirs, saw the "Brick Monument" at Ginza 1-chome, and after the Great Kanto Earthquake, Ginza Brick Street filled the wet streets of Shinagawa Togoshi, The story that became the station name of "Togoshi Ginza" on the current Tokyu Meguro Line. The bricks in Ginza were made at a brick factory in Shinagawa, so I returned to my hometown (!?) After that, I went to Kinharu Street in Ginza 8-chome. Here is also the "Ginza Brick Monument". When the building was constructed around this area, an old brick wall came out, and while the brick was talking about Nado on display at the Edo Tokyo Museum, it was said that "Dinner is eel!" To the eel. (I'm sorry, it's in Chiyoda-ku.)
