The National Noh Theatre is pulling out all the stops this summer, putting on a programme of showcase performances featuring some of Japan's finest Noh and Kyogen plays. Curated to resonate with the ongoing Japan Cultural Expo's theme of ‘Humanity and Nature in Japan’, the shows will be compact and accessible: around two hours long, each performance will be subtitled in English, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. On September 5, the theatre will also stage its first sign-language Kyogen production, which should make for fascinating viewing no matter what your hearing is like.
Note: The dates and opening hours of this exhibition may change due to the Covid-19 coronavirus outbreak. Please see the official website for the latest details.
