Nizaemon's first Benkei in 11 years - "Hideyama Festival September Daikabuki" is being staged
The "Hideyama Festival", which began in 2006 with the aim of inheriting the achievements of the first Yoshiemon, its arts and spirit, has reached its twelfth anniversary this year and has become an annual autumn event. This year, along with the 100th anniversary of Karoku Nakamura, the father of the first Yoshiemon, the third generation, came together with kyogen. Including today's Yoshiemon and Harimaya Ichimon, Komaya and Otowa-ya, it is a gorgeous stage.
I came on the night of the third day. I'm looking for Benkei of "Kanjincho", an alternate appearance of Koshiro and Nizaemon. Nizaemon's Benkei is the first time in Kabukiza in 11 years since 2008. Expectations are raised for the full stage. From the appearance of the flower path, great applause, the breathless mountain ascetic hermit question and answer, the dance of the flower path in six directions was at its peak. I hurriedly arranged the ticket again in the intermission.
Even so, the children of Kabuki actors recently are noticeable. Shogen-kun, the eldest son of Ebizo of "Torouri" in July, Kantaro-kun, the eldest son of Kankuro in August, and Chosaburo-kun, the second son of Chosaburo-kun, the eldest son of Kikunosuke, and this month, Ushinosuke-kun, the eldest son of Kikunosuke, and the first appearance of the song Noboru. In the daytime section where Shogen-kun appeared, it was reputed that the early replacement of 13 Ebizo-san sold out earlier than the hot evening section.
The “Kabuki School Terakoya Results Presentation Performance” reported in March was “Re-performance” last month, and four performances were performed for two days. Of course, it seems to be the first time that the performance of the children of Kabuki School will be replayed, but after about six months, I was watching for the growth. Both the appearance and the performance felt "leeway", and I felt like I was completely in my relatives. Please pay attention to the growth of the children.
The night section is "Terakoya" and "Matsuura Taiko", and the daytime section is "Hatazu Chobei", "Festival" and "Numazu".
Senakiraku will be available on the 25th, and inquiries will be available at Tickethon Shochiku 0570-000-489 (10:00 to 18:00).
