We are pleased to announce our theater production We are pleased to announce our theater production "JPA Cultural Repertoires 2017," which is the second production counting from the first one in 2015.
In 2015, we performed in front of a full house. Thanks to our amazing patrons.
This year's show is a bigger production than anything that's come before it.
Our show consists of three distinct categories; the kimono show, the Nihon Buyo (one of the traditional Japanese dances), and folk performing arts from three different regions in Japan.
Especially this time, we are inviting professional Bunraku puppeteers from Osaka. This is the first time in about 25 years since the last time Bunraku puppeteers came to perform in NYC. Bunraku is listed as one of UNESCO World Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003). Each performance will have a corresponding set of videos and images that will be displayed on stage with our MCs to explain its details.
The opportunity of seeing all these performances live in one production is a rare opportunity in not only NY but in Japan as well. You do not want to miss this special opportunity, and we'd love to see you there. Come on over to the Peter Norton Symphony Space!
