Shinoharu Official SiteExperience Rakugo in English!
Rakugo
is a traditional Japanese comic storytelling entertainment that has been passed
on for more than 300 years. It takes a
unique style, where one performer sits on a stage, and acts out all the
characters that appear in the story.
Some stories are classical, some are original, but they are both quite
hilarious. Shinoharu, who used to live
in the U.S. for seven years, makes this entertainment accessible to
non-Japanese speakers and first-timers, as well as Rakugo fans who are eager to
experience this art with a different twist.
Please join the fun!!<Shinoharu Tatekawa>
SHINOHARU
TATEKAWA is a Rakugo (Japanese traditional comic storytelling) performer born
in Osaka, Japan. He moved to New York at
the age of eight, and since then, has spent a total of 7 years in the U.S. After graduating from Yale University in 1999,
he worked in Mitsui & Co. Ltd for three and a half years. In 2002, he was so greatly impressed and
inspired when he attended Shinosuke Tatekawa's Rakugo performance that he
decided to give up his corporate position to become a professional Rakugo
performer himself by taking up a discipleship with Shinosuke Tatekawa.
After training
in the art of Rakugo for eight and a half years, he was promoted to "Futatsume"
(a recognized rank for independent Rakugo performers). He performs both traditional stories, and
original stories, as well as in English to bring this art form to an
international audience.
In 2011, he gave
his first solo Rakugo performance in Singapore. In 2012, he was invited to the Singapore
International Storytelling Festival (SISF), where he was the only Japanese
performer featured. Since then, he as
been performing in Singapore twice a year.
Presently, he
travels around Japan and the world on a mission of bringing laughter to
everyone. He has also published three
books, including an English Rakugo CD book.
Since Rakugo performers
choose which stories to tell on the spot, we do not know which stories he will
be telling, but we're sure that it will be a fun-filled night! Please come and enjoy the world of Rakugo!Updatestag:peatix.com,2016-09-25 13:56:042016-09-25 13:56:04イベント詳細情報を更新しました。 Diff#195430Updatestag:peatix.com,2016-09-08 05:02:332016-09-08 05:02:33イベント詳細情報を更新しました。 Diff#191442
