Feel the Japanese spoken comedy live, in Tokyo if you get tickets to the Shofukutei Chako and Shunputei Shosaku duo show. I love how the audience laughs together while the Shofukutei Chako and Shunputei Shosaku storytellers share their new material. This special rakugo showcase brings together two celebrated storytellers to deliver a program featuring their new material. Held at Kameido Umeyashiki the performance provides visitors with an ideal opportunity to encounter an authentic cultural tradition in an intimate setting.
The Traditional Art of Rakugo
Rakugo is one of Japans enduring performing arts. Rakugo dates back, to the Edo period. In a Rakugo show a single performer wears clothing. Rakugo performer sits alone on a raised stage. Only a paper fan and a small hand towel serve as props. With vocal changes and subtle facial expressions Rakugo performer brings to life Rakugo stories. Rakugo stories contain characters. Rakugo stories also contain humour and sharp human insights ticket.
A Unique Duo Performance in Tokyo
This joint performance features Shofukutei Chako and Shunputei Shosaku, two artists who belong to different schools within the rakugo community. The Shofukutei school is known for the energetic way of telling stories that comes from the Kansai area. The Shunputei school is known for the style of stories that come from Tokyo. The partnership between these two artists brings an interesting energy to the stage. They mix wordplay, old-style character stories and funny timing that feels up to date.
