Thank you for viewing! (^o^) ★☆★Product Description★☆★ This DVD features a recording of the special performance at the Zacho Tournament held on December 21, 2004, at the Shinkaichi Theater in Hyogo Prefecture. The direction and composition of this performance were handled by Noboru Koizumi, Mitsuru Ohikata, and the two leading figures. These two individuals have been at the forefront of the Showa and Heisei era's popular theater world. It was a wonderful stage (performance). The play is the special kyogen "The Path to the World." It's a passionate story of men living by duty, humanity, and the yakuza. The play also features innovative gimmicks and direction. Everyone's acting skills were outstanding and very impressive. The dance stage features everything from alluring female impersonators to dignified standing roles and numerous group dances. The special last show "Brothers' Quarrel." The leading actors performed. It was masculine and wonderful! This is a work from about 20 years ago. It is now almost impossible to obtain and is considered valuable. The video is also preserved as a DVD, not VHS! You can never see it live again, and it's impossible! Some of the performers have passed away or retired. This is a collaboration between those people and the current top-class actors! And please enjoy the appearance of everyone in their younger days! ★ Performers (in no particular order). Mitsuru Ohikata Gekidan: Mitsuru Ohikata. Satomi Gekidan Shinmeiza: Yojiro Satomi.
