The National Theatre's special performance will be held in Tono City! ✨
Please enjoy a performance at the setting of “The Legends of Tono”. ✨
Tōno Monogatari, translated as “The Legends of Tono”, is a renowned work penned over 100 years ago by the father of Japanese folklore studies, Yanagita Kunio. In Legends of Tono, Yanagita Kunio recorded a plethora of tales from Iwate prefecture’s Tōno region, all recounted to him by Sasaki Kizen. The book contains a plethora of stories about the supernatural, spirits, and strange happenings from the region, as well as a basic ethnography of the locals and their lives and traditions.

In this one-of-a-kind performance, a “Tayū” (narrator) from the Japanese art of puppetry (Bunraku) will recite excerpts from Tōno Monogatari, accompanied by folk dances and puppet shows. The past and present will converge as landscapes from the modern day Tōno will be video projected alongside their descriptions from over a century ago.

Bunraku masters will bring the story to life using intricately carved dolls, portraying a number of mythological figures and yokai such as the “kappa”.
In addition, traditional forms of dance that are referenced in the book, such as Kagura and Shishi-odori, will be performed live by dance troupes from Tōno.

Don’t miss this rare collaborative performance showcasing the vibrant culture of rural Japan.

For those seeking authentic cultural experiences in Japan, we present a full-scale traditional Japanese music performance produced by the National Theatre of Japan, a leading institution for classical performing arts.

In this concert, you will experience the sound of the shamisen, a traditional Japanese stringed instrument.
In a single program, audiences can experience five works, each from a different genre of traditional Japanese music, including shamisen music, narrative music, and instrumental pieces.

HOGAKU is Japanese classical music played on Japanese instruments, and most of the pieces that have been handed down to the present day were composed during the Edo period (1603-1868).

The theme of this program is “Snow.”
While real snow has no sound, Japanese traditional music expresses snow through the sounds of the drums and the shamisen. One of the highlights of this program is the way a particular melodic figure—associated with snow—appears and is adapted across multiple pieces.

Brief explanations in English will be provided to help you understand.
Audiences who do not understand Japanese can enjoy the performance with confidence. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you.
