Profile
"Yoyogi Kachokai"
This association was established in April 1998 by 4 people in total including the late Masataka ASAMI, 3 Noh actors who were related to the Asami family and others. All of them are active as leading Nohgakushi, and each of them regularly performs high-quality performances.
Also, in order to change the image of noh, which tends to be avoided because of its high barrier to entry, we are planning performance methods and workshops that are easy for beginners to understand.
