The Noh stage is the space that was completely simplified and here
are not curtains between a seat and a stage. Originally the Noh stage was out
of a field. At the present when it came to be performed in a Noh theater, the
stage has a roof, and the roofed passage with the railing lengthens, and
Matsunoki stands. This is because it reproduces the stage of the outdoor Noh. In
the Noh stage, such a various devices are done.
(The stage of Noh)
The stage is made with a hinoki tree. Behind the stage center "Kagamuita".
And there is a curtain to the left, "Hashigakari" to the depths. It is
supposed that this form was established may be slightly before the times when
Nobunaga Oda played an important part. The oldest stage which became the
current structure is north Noh stage of west Honganji that Hideyoshi made. In others,
various laborer are carried out. For example, three pines gradually become
small from this side. This is a device using the perspective drawing. The
illumination becomes modest to create states like the natural light. Four
pillars stand on the stage. “Shite” who attached a Noh-mask is extremely one of
narrow outlook, and the pillar becomes the important mark.
(the Noh theater)
The Noh was staged in old days in the outdoors, but it is wide and
is staged on a Noh theater and a public hall, the temporary stage now. In the
Buddhist temple and Shinto shrine having the outdoor stage from old days, Ii
may be dedicated to play Noh by annual festival, and bonfire Noh may be staged
in the outdoors. The national Noh theater of the public theater in Tokyo stages
the Noh of the five kinds of styles and the Noh comedy of two kind of styles
through the year. It can be looked at a relatively low rate. There is an open
lecture about the Noh, and a various plans exhibition about attire and the Noh is
carried out in the exhibition room. The documents are substantial in the book
reading room, too.
(the bonfire Noh)
The bonfire Noh is ability to be performed in the outdoors. It came
to be performed flourishingly now in various places. It is often held in the
precincts or the park of a temple and the Shinto shrine. The event
"firewood party" of Nara, Kofuku-ji Temple performed in the Heian era
has the origin of the bonfire Noh. Noh and the Noh comedy including "Okina"
are dedicated as Shinto ritual of Kasuga Taisha Shrine and Kofuku-ji Temple now
for two days of May 11th and 12th.
