In a tear inducing moment of Christmas 2017 our daughters gave us a cash voucher to spend on a ‘unique Japanese experience’… a thoughtful and generous gift which really tugged at our hearts!
After considering various options- sumo wrestling, sushi classes, kimono dressing, ninja training etc- we decided that a visit to a Kabuki theatre would be more suited to our tastes. Although we are not regular theatre goers, we do enjoy the opera, and had read that Kabuki was like opera without the singing. Apart from knowing it involved costumed actors with white faced make-up, we knew little about Kabuki theatre.
