Please let us know if you would be interested in the recording of the University of Illinois performance. The Buraku Association group has toured in Europe in the past, so it may still happen in the future.

Can someone please tell me the name of this play?

[osakachicago]

The name of the play featured on this clip is "Datemusume koi no higanoko -Hinomi yagura no dan-" in English it was called "Oshichi's burning love - The Fire Watch Tower".

Very interesting. Who is the professor who does the translation?

[osakachicago]

It is Mr. Peter Grilli of the Japan America Society of Boston.

Bunraku is my favorite type of Japanese theatre. I'm definitely going to try and watch a show.

I would love to see a play, but a troupe coming to the UK is very unlikely. Bunraku is a combination of the all the high arts.
