Written by Toshihiko.Hiura
Here is my first blog.
Kabuki is the traditional Japanese dance which has existed for more than 300 years. Kanzaburo Nakamura, the eldest son of Nakamura family which is previliged to play Kabuki play (There are only limited number of families which can perform Kabuki. We call this closed circle of the families as ” 梨園、Rien”) has died Dec 5th last year at the age of 57. He left great performance in my memory and I just want to share one of his best play.
