Please continue with this series!!! So intresting to see the promising new figures, in the Kabuki theater! Greetings from Germany
I am an American actor who is learning so much from these videos! You've just earned a new Patreon subscriber.
I'm happy to hear that you are learning something from these video! Thank you for the kind support!
Yes please! As many videos as you can , or allowed to do…this is a new facet of beauty and learning for me, and I treasure it. To have all of this explained is wonderful, thank you again, so much…
Nakamura Kangyoku, Nakamura Takanosuke, and Onoe Matsuya II were a delight to watch in the Touken Ranbu kabuki! As a fan of the franchise, I felt like it was a great introduction to the art form--it was the first full kabuki play I watched and I'm delighted that they announced a second one in production. I'm definitely looking forward to the future of their careers.
👍👍👍❤️
Great video, as always! I noticed that the Kabukiza program for November will be a "Welcome to Kabuki" performance tailored for tourists and beginners instead of the usual Kaomise program. Do you know why this might be? Is Shochiku trying to capitalize on the tourist boom or was there difficulty in putting together a full program because of actor availability, financial constraints, etc?
It seems that some maintenance work had to be done for the stage machinery (revolving stage, lifts and such, I imagine), so they cancelled the originally scheduled kaomise program, and, instead of closing the theatre completely, they have gone with this limited program (with no evening shows, except for two days, and many rest days). Not sure what to make of the "for beginners and people from abroad" gimmick.
Yonekichi V, Kasho IV and Tanenosuke really have promising careers and I hope they achieve more success in the future. But here, I have a doubt here: last week you said that the Harimaya house (whose heirs are Nakamura Yonekichi V, Nakamura Kasho IV and his brother Nakamura Tanenosuke) had a beef with the Yorozuya house (whose heirs are Nakamura Tokizo VI and Nakamura Hayato). Explain something to me: how did the two houses seal peace between themselves, to the point that Nakamura Karoku V and Nakamura Matagoro III rejoined the Harimaya house and consequently, Karoku V became the current head of the Harimaya house (and Nakamura Yonekichi V became the heir of the Harimaya house)?
It seems that the catalyst for the reunion was the death in 2009 of Living National Treasure Nakamura Matagorō II, leaving Kichiemon II as the sole member of the Harimaya. I'm not sure if there was a true reconciliation between the everyone involved (Tokizō V, for example, did not take part in the 2010 ceremony, and I don't remember him ever sharing the stage with the Kichiemon II), but Kichiemon didn't want the Harimaya to die with him, and Karoku V and his family had everything to gain. We can't be sure of their true feeling, but their artistic partnership during the last decade of Kichiemon's life was a great success.
@@KabukiInDepth Speaking of Kabuki beef, could you explain to me about the beef that happened between Bando Tamasaburō V and Nakamura Utaemon VI? I read somewhere that Tamasaburō had some beef with Utaemon before Tamasaburō became the most famous onnagata actor today. Any idea what happened?
I haven't heard anything like that. As far as I know, Utaemon took Tamasaburō under his wing fairly soon in his career, and were in good terms even after Utaemon retired.
@@KabukiInDepth From what I read in the article about Tamasaburō V on the Japanese Wikipedia, it appears that he and Utaemon VI had a feud over their artistic style and activity policy. The two made peace years later when Utaemon VI was almost retiring and Tamasaburō V was taking Utaemon VI's place. But apparently it doesn't mention what this activity policy was or what the difference in artistic style was between Tamasaburō V and Utaemon VI.
That's why I asked if you knew anything, because the Wikipedia article about Tamasaburō V mentioned this subject in a very superficial way, without providing many details...
That's interesting to know, I'll look into it!
Where can we watch these videos I'm full?
