July Program at the Kabukiza Theatre: Evening Show (July 2025)

I came for 'Chō no Michiyuki', danced by Somegoro Ichikawa and Danko Ichikawa — delicate and lovely at first, then swept into the torments of hell. With 'Onihei Hankachō: Kettō' starring Koshiro Matsumoto, and a long-awaited medetai-yaki.

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.

September Program at the Kabukiza Theatre: Evening Show (September 2024)

Watching the Shuzan-sai Evening Show from a seat right beside the temporary hanamichi. The which-bank-to-sit-on dilemma of Yoshinogawa, a luxurious cast for Kanjincho, a bromide photographed against the real stage, and a medetai-yaki dash.
