Excellent experience - Excellent experience! I was especially impressed with the performance of the two main characters, Osumu and Rokusuku, and the talent of the child actor. The three street walkers' dance was witty and highly entertaining; it brought the ancient art of Kabuki closer to the modern viewer. The English audio guide was very helpful. I saw this full version of the play which lasted over four hours (with two intervals), which is a bit taxing foExcellent experiencer a modern viewer. May I suggest that instead of showing full versions the players could perform most famous scenes from two or three plays.
