Chushingura

Castle Hopping: Edo Castle (March 2026)

Slipping into the Imperial Palace East Gardens to fill an empty morning. Awed by a keep base that has stood brand new for 370 years, replaying Chushingura at the Great Pine Corridor, and failing to buy a single stamp or castle seal.

March Program at the Kabukiza Theatre: Kanadehon Chūshingura (March 2025)

A full day of Chūshingura at the Kabukiza — a sajiki box seat for the Matinee, the second floor for the Evening Show. Ukon's fiery Wakasanosuke, Nizaemon and Shichinosuke at the Ichiriki Teahouse, plus a bentō and a medetai-yaki along the way.
