Profile

[Asukayama Takigi-noh Executive Committee]
The event was held in 2003 for the 400 first time by the late Mr. Kunya Kimura, who was a member of the Association for Japanese Noh Plays and a general holder of Important Intangible Cultural Property of Noh. Since the fourth performance, volunteers from local town associations, shopping districts, and companies have carried on Kimura's wishes as an executive committee. The performance will be attended by leading Japanese Noh actors including Mansaku NOMURA and Genshoshi UMEWAKA.
