NOH + FASHION at Kanze Noh Theatre, GINZA SIX

JUNKO KOSHINO will present a total-art stage performance fusing “tradition and the contemporary” with Kiyokazu Kanze, the 26th Grand Master of the Kanze School, on the stage of the historic Kanze Noh Theatre at GINZA SIX. In the first part, she presents NOH + FASHION — a fusion of Western garments infused with Japanese beauty by JUNKO KOSHINO and the classical Noh piece “Fujin Raijin (Gods of Wind and Thunder).” In the second part, she presents the Noh piece “Momijigari: Onizoroe,” featuring the nochi-shite (the lead role in the second act) costume designed by JUNKO KOSHINO and a mountain of autumn leaves. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we will take every precaution against infection, aiming to create an event that serves as a knot binding art to future generations.
