The three acts of "Kaguyahime", the result of a magnificent collaboration between Jo Kanamori and the Tokyo Ballet, will return to the stage of Tokyo Bunka Kaikan. Against the backdrop of Claude Debussy's masterpiece, Japan's oldest story "The Tale of the Bamboo-Cutter" will be revived in the modern age through ballet, the ultimate form of physical expression. Ei Akiyama plays the lead role of Kaguyahime, and Taku Otsuka plays Michiko, portraying the ever-changing human form through beautiful and powerful dance. Please come and enjoy this memorable artistic finale that will be the last performance before the closing of Tokyo Bunka Kaikan. This work, which has received rave reviews both in Japan and abroad, will leave all who see it deeply moved.
