Yarai Nōgaku-dō, Traditional Noh theater in Yaraicho district, Tokyo, Japan
The Yarai Nōgaku-dō features a square stage with three open sides and a back wall decorated with a painted pine tree image.
Established as the second oldest Noh theater in Tokyo, the Yarai Nōgaku-dō underwent relocation and reconstruction in 1952 to its current location.
The Kansei Kyukokai troupe performs classical Noh productions at this venue, maintaining the traditional male-only casting and elaborate mask performances.
Performances occur every second Sunday of the month, with the theater operating from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays, located two minutes from Kagurazaka Station.
English information pamphlets assist international visitors in understanding the performances, which incorporate intricate masks and specialized musical instruments.
