All Reviews for Theme Parks & Attractions

It might be rude to the performers, but the understanding rate of the lines in the 2015 King of Conte is about 50%, since it's using old language, haha! Also, I can drink alcohol!

演者には失礼かもしらへんけど、2015年キングオブコント！セリフ理解率は5割かな、古い言葉やしw！あとお酒飲めます！

I am a 26-year-old company employee.
I experienced kyogen for the first time at the Kyogen Lounge.
It was a lot of fun and very different from the stiff image I had!
The traditional arts, crafts, music, and food all reflect a spirit of hospitality in every detail, creating a chic and sophisticated atmosphere that can be enjoyed casually. Additionally, the kindness in explaining enjoyable ways to appreciate it and the history, even for beginners, was impressive. I am very satisfied!
I would like to visit again next time!

２６歳会社員です。
狂言ラウンジで初めて、狂言に触れました。
堅苦しいイメージとは違い、大笑いしました！
伝統芸能、伝統工芸、音楽、食など細部までおもてなしの心が込められていて、粋で色気のある大人の空間をカジュアルに体験できる空間。また初心者でもわかる楽しみ方や歴史についても解説してくれる親切さ。大満足です！
次回も足を運びたいと思います！

I heard from an acquaintance that there was a new style of kyogen, so I decided to check it out. For me, the image of Noh and kyogen has always felt heavy, which made it hard for me to attend, but this time it pleasantly exceeded my expectations.

First, I checked in and chose a complimentary drink (I went for wine) in the lounge. While enjoying some delicious food (which was paid), I soaked in the atmosphere standing up.

What surprised me here was... the customers were just so stylish. I thought most attendees would be in their 50s and 60s since it was kyogen, but there were actually quite a few fashionable and wonderful people in their 20s to 40s. Even the older attendees were all charming in their own way.

Then we entered the Noh theater. The opening act featured actors who energized the atmosphere, and they humorously and clearly explained and performed "kyogen," interacting with Motoharu Okura. I was able to hear some trivia as well. The performance length was just right—not too short and not too long.

I am truly grateful that the Okura school, which uniquely conveys the essence of sarugaku, has created such an innovative and casual production. I would like to invite another friend to join me next time.

知人に新しいスタイルの狂言があると聞き、足を運んできました。
私にとって能や狂言のイメージは重く足を運べなかったのですが、今回良い意味で期待を裏切ってくれました。

まずは受付し、ラウンジで一杯の無料ドリンク(私はワイン)をチョイス。
美味しそうな料理(これは有料)を摘んだりしながら、スタンディングで雰囲気を楽しみます。

ここで驚いたのが、、、とにかくお客さんがイケてるのです。
狂言だから50代60代の方がほとんどかと思ってたのですが
20代~40代のオシャレで素敵な雰囲気の方々がかなり多い印象です。
年配の方でもどことなく素敵な方々ばかり。

そして能楽堂内へ。
前座では役者が場を盛り上げ、大藏基誠氏とも絡みながら「狂言」を面白おかしく、
そして解りやすく説明し、演出してくれます。
いくつかのトリビアも聞くことが出来ました。
公演の時間も短すぎず長すぎず調度よい感じです。

猿楽本流の狂言を唯一伝える大藏流が、
こんなに斬新でフランクな演出を創造してくれたことに本当に感謝です。
次回は別の友人を誘って参加してみたいと思います。
