Business Overview
Noh actors themselves use their own words to convey the charm of Noh both in Japan and abroad. Noh is introduced in Japanese and French in the works of a spatial designer at Roppongi Stripehouse Gallery. The company will perform Issyo (one tune) 'Gekoso' and Maibayashi 'Hanjo,' and later on, it will connect the Noh stage with France on time via the Internet, introduce Nohgaku and introduce Nohgaku videos, and later release Nohgaku videos to a wide range of people through free distribution.
