2024 First Laughter "Fox Fox Fox Fox Banana" - Early Spring Daikabuki
In January 2024, Kabuki performances were held at Kabukiza Theater, theater, Asakusa Public Hall, New National Theatre and four theaters. First of all, I went to Kabukiza Theater. The beginning of the event was "Gonin Sanbaso" by young actors. Fukunosuke, Takanoshi, Utanosuke, Tama Taro, and Toranosuke are all in flower shapes.
The second act is "Jutayu Arakawa" of "Ako Gishigaiden", which premiered last October. The works that received the "Takejiro Otani Award" and the "Art Festival Excellence Award" received a great response, and were re-enacted as early as possible.
The third act is "raccoon raccoon raccoon raccoon". In the premiere of 1961 (1961), actors such as Kanzaburo, Hisaya Morishige, Isuzu Yamada and Norihei Miki were actors. Since then, the 18th generation Kansaburo has performed many times, so I think it's a familiar play, but it's fun even if you know the end. A fox and a raccoon's two-turn and three-turned fox. It is Koshiro who plays dyed goods and Inosuke from the upper female form, Ukon in his wife's Okinawa, Kinnosuke is the best of the bad smell shaven who is close to Okinawa, and Somegoro in the suspicious employer Mataichi and all the first role I work. It's the perfect laugh comedy for the first time.
This "raccoon raccoon raccoon raccoon" is the work of playwright Hideji Hojo (1902-1996). Hideji Hojo also retains many new and Kabuki works that are still performed in the post-war theater world's heavyweight, but he loves Tsukuda Island, which preserves the remnants of Edo, and Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge is completed and Tsukuda's handover is abolished. It is said that he has been collecting "3 round trips without landing" along with the new school Shotaro Hanayagi on the last day. The song monument of Hideji Hojo stands next to the monument of "Tsukuda's passing trace". On the back side where the phrase "If it snows, Tsukuda is an old Edo island" is engraved, "Hideji Hojo Yoneju Memorial" is written, and the presidents of Shochiku, theater, Meijiza and Toho at the time are named.
