KABUKIZA to close for reconstruction



In Japan, there is a very traditional entertainment called Kabuki, which started about 600 years ago.  Kabukiza means Kabuki Theater, and it’s located in central Tokyo, Ginza.

Kabukiza is not that old because the present one was built about 60 years ago, but probably something got old for today’s play style, I suppose.  It’s going to be rebuilt on the same place to be completed in a few months.

As a reference, most of Japanese traditonal entertainment are said to be formed and started by HATA CLAN in Japan. If you study about Hata Clan, you might be finding unbelievable facts about Japanese people’s roots in the history as I got dramatically surprised. Many often redo the history study about Japan when they hit this fact of Hata Clan.  I wrote about the Hata Clan a little in previous posts
