Revealing the Hidden: Noh Mask Carving
In an opportunity rarely granted to those living outside Japan, Theatre Nohgaku has partnered with our longtime collaborator Hideta Kitazawa to provide for this once-in-a-liftime experience.

Participants will create their own noh masks in the home studio of master carver and instructor Hideta Kitazawa. Finished works will be displayed at the Kita School’s theater in Meguro for the final recital of the Power through Resistance Workshop.

2018 Workshop Series

In 1917 Irish poet William Butler Yeats published At the Hawk’s Well. Often referred to as a "noh play", Yeats's noh-influenced work served to introduce this powerful and evocative form to Western audiences.

Since 2003 Theatre Nohgaku has hosted workshops for poets, playwrights and other writers, as well as musicians and performance artists to help them better understand Japanese noh, to assist them in using noh in their own artistic pursuits, and to help develop their knowledge and awareness of this complex and beautiful artistic form.
