TOKYO
KABUKI GUIDE.COM provides you all information about Kabuki in
Tokyo.
TOKYO KABUKI GUIDE.COM helps the guests to enjoy Kabuki more and more in the
following way. -Provision of
tickets & pre-performance lecture over the
traditional
Japanese tea & sweets at the
nice
tea salon near the
theater
(Lecture
includes the background of Kabuki, the features
of Kabuki, some hints on
Kabuki show that the guiets will be seeing, etc.)
-Selection
the programs for Kabuki tour to enjoy Kabuki
casually
(Shinbashi-enbujyo
theater)
Kabuki show time is usually about 5 hours at
Shinbashi-enbujyo theater. Many people
from abroad feel
that the full Kabuki show is too long, even for some
Japanese.
Some Japanese
select the shows to see because each program in a show is an
individual story.
TOKYO KABUKI GUIDE.COM selcets the programs upon your requests and then tour
schedule will
be set.
●Please note that the single show "Makumi" tickets are not
operated at Shinbashi-

Why did I start this
tour?
Kabuki is a very fascinating performing art. I have enjoyed
Kabuki for many years! I love all peforming arts such as opera and
musicals. I wish to share my many experiences and knowledge; to show
guests a part of the Japan I love as a Japanese person.
I want
many people to enjoy Kabuki as I do, but I think pople can enjoy
Kabuki more with some information before you rent the audio guide (ear
phone guide).
★read more FAQS
(Q11)★
Who is your
guide?
I, Kazui Yabe, a Japanese female licensed tour
guide and a volunteer Japanese language teacher. I have seen the
Japanese traditional stage arts over 200 times, such as
Kabuki, Bunraku puppet play and Noh.
My home is very close
to the Kabuki-za theater and Tsukiji. I love the
neighborhood surrounding the Kabuki-za
theater.
