Business Overview

Kyogen is often performed by each family, but once a year, young Kyogen performers across schools and families come together for a performance called "Tachiai Kyogen-kai," which marks the 10th performance. After the COVID-19 pandemic, 10 groups finally gathered to watch 10 kyogen programs. Its subtitle is' Kyogen Goban Tate x 2 Juban Shobu. '. Five pieces are arranged according to the five-point Noh performance of 'Kami, Otoko, Onna, Mad and Oni,' and a small dance is performed along the way. This was made up of two sets with a 25 minute break. By continuing the Tachiai Kyogenkai, not only the interaction among Kyogen performers is deepened, which leads to the revitalization of the whole organization, but also the feeling that the next generation of audiences can be developed and nurtured is obtained, and the ripple effect of an increase in the number of Kyogen audiences is expected. I believe it will be an unprecedented and epoch-making performance that will contribute to the spread and development of Japanese culture.
