Comments |
Ichikawa Ennosuke and his troupe of young and talented actors perform a modern style of theater, which they created a few years ago and called "Super Kabuki" (Sûpâ Kabuki in Chikamatsu Monzaemon's lingo): it's spectacular (lots of chûnori), the costums are gorgeous and ultra-sophisticated, the music is modern, the texts are easy to understand and the plots are as twisted as a good Kabuki classic. Usually a big commercial success! |

Comments |
The great play "Sannin Kichisa" narrates the adventures of three thieves whose common features are the same first name (Kichisa) and a strong sense of honour. Oshô Kichisa, an ex-bonze turned thief, is played by Fujikawa Yanosuke. Ojô Kichisa, a thief who dresses like a young woman to steal people, is played by Kawarasaki Kunitarô. Obô Kichisa, an ex-samurai turned thief, is played by Segawa Kikunojô. |
