National Theatre of Japan

The National Theatre of Japan. If I had more time, I would research to see a Kabuki or a Bunraku performance here. Kabuki performances are dance performances where its stylised art of drama with elaborate makeup is often portrayed as attractive Japanese culture worthy of an experience by visitors. But a performance at the National Theatre tends to be among the best so seats are harder to come by at the last moment. Bunraku are performances done by puppet masters using puppets to tell a story. The puppets are usually elaborate almost lifelike and the performances quite evocative. This would be an interesting departure from the usual symphonies in other parts of the world.
