October Program at the Heisei Nakamuraza Theatre: Part 2 (October 2026)

The Heisei Nakamuraza is back in Asakusa after four years. Props lined up inside the theatre, the view from a bench seat on the shimote side, Kankurō's first Sukeroku, Shichinosuke's Agemaki, plus Ganjirō's dandy — I enjoyed the whole playhouse.

October Program at the Heisei Nakamuraza Theatre: Part 1 (October 2026)

Part 1 of the Heisei Nakamuraza, back in Asakusa after four years, seen from a dobu seat by the hanamichi. Real Asakusa as the backdrop, Act 9 of Chūshingura, a first-ever father-and-sons Renjishi that moved me to tears, plus a theatre bentō.
