    Kashu-juku Noh Theater performs 14th century traditional Japanese theater in celebration of the Subaru Cherry Blossom Festival, as part of the Kimmel Center Presents series, on Monday, March 21, 2011 at 7:30pm in Perelman Theater. The touring troupe brings to life centuries-old theatrical traditions, once performed at temples, shrines, and festivals, and combines elements of dance, drama, music, and poetry into highly-stylized stage art.

     

    Artists and musicians perform a mai-bayashi dance performance from Yashima; a comedic kyogen play titled Boshibari (Tied to a Pole), and Aoi No Ue (Lady Aoi), a dramatic noh performance adapted from a chapter of the classic Japanese novel, Tale of Genji. The Kimmel Center performance will be presented in Japanese with English subtitles.
