The Bunraku-style drama filled with plenty of laughter and tears
A long awaited-performance coming to Kansai for the first time!
2014 Aug. 7th thu. – 17th sun.
Story
By KOKI MITANI
* This performance has English subtitles.
This is a completely modern-day Bunraku (traditional Japanese puppet theatre),
produced by one of most popular Japanese writer-directors, Koki Mitani who is also
the best comedy writer. The story is based on Sonezaki Shinju, which is different in its
details but can be called a Japanese
version of Romeo and Juliet.
This is the historic collaboration,
remaining major essence of
traditional Bunraku and now-a-day
brilliant tragic comedy. So, why not
join the performance, let out some
laughter and maybe some tears this
August at the KYOTO Theater!
