National Theatre Special Project Tono Performance "Telling the Tales of Tono – The World of Tono Interwoven Through Storytelling, Performing Arts, and Film"

This year's Tono Civic Center independent project is a joint project with the National Theater!

Based on the famous work "The Tales of Tono" by the pioneer of folklore studies, Yanagita Kunio, this is a performance never before seen, combining narration by a Bunraku puppet theatre tayu, Bunraku puppets, and Tono folk performing arts.

Along with the narration of the tayu, kappa, zashiki warashi, Gongen, mountain gods, lion dancers and other characters appear.

The "stage" is colored by footage of Tono's rich landscapes and photographs by Urata Hoichi.

Please enjoy the world of "Tono Monogatari" unfolding through the storytelling, as traditional and folk performing arts come together.
