Business Overview

It is a performance in which both those who can see, those who cannot see, and those who cannot see can enjoy the sound of the words of the classics in Noh and kodan, the classical arts of which Japan is proud, in a Noh theater. Hizuko is my child who was kidnapped by a trafficker. The world of the famous song "Sumida River," which depicts the deep sorrow of a mother who has lost her child, is explored through Noh by Kanze school Noh actor Suzuki Keigo and kodan storytelling by kodan storyteller Takarai Kotaku.
