About the Sasarindou Kikka Nohgaku Fund

This fund was established by the wishes of a woman who practiced chanting and musical accompaniment as a hobby, with the aim of providing opportunities for young Noh performers who have few opportunities to perform on stage, as well as for the future development and preservation of Nohgaku.

With the aim of protecting and nurturing Japan's wonderful culture, we plan to continue holding performances at least once a year.

We would be grateful for your support and attendance.

見物左衛門（けんぶつざえもん）

　見物左衛門という男が京都深草の藤森神社に深草祭の見物に出かけ、あちらこちらと見て歩くうちに自ら相撲を取ることになり…。

　和泉流にのみ伝わる、独演が見所の狂言。

安宅（あたか）

　平家滅亡後、兄頼朝に追われる身となった義経は弁慶らと仮の山伏姿となり、奥州へ向かったという。それを聞いた頼朝は各地に新関を立て、山伏の通行を厳しく取り締まらせていた。

　所は加賀の国。富樫の何某が守りを固める安宅の関に差しかかった義経一行は、東大寺再建の勧進山伏を騙り、義経を強力姿に変えて関を抜けようとする。しかし一人たりとも山伏を通さぬと迫る富樫に、ならば尋常に成敗されようと最期の勤行を始める一行。その気迫に押され、富樫は勧進の山伏ならば勧進帳を読み上げよと命じる。弁慶が咄嗟の機転でありあわせの巻物を勧進帳と偽り、声も高らかに読み上げると、その見事さに富樫も感心し一行を通す。

　しかしつき従う強力が義経に似ていると見咎め、富樫は再び一行に詰め寄る。刀の柄に手をかけ主の大事と気負う一同。一触即発の事態に弁慶は慌てずこれを制し、これもこの強力が義経に似たためと言って義経を金剛杖で容赦なく打ち据える。なおも両者は激しく対峙するが、遂に一行の気勢に押され、富樫は通行を許す。

　事無きを得て安堵し、関を離れて暫し休息する一行。弁慶が先刻の非礼を詫びると、義経は逆にその機転を褒め、現在の境涯を嘆く。

　そこへ富樫が先刻の無礼を詫びるため追いかけて現れ、酒を振る舞う。盃を受けた弁慶は豪快に舞を舞うと、急ぎ奥州へと下るのだった。

　歌舞伎「勧進帳」の原型として知られる現在能の代表作。追いつめられた果てに命を賭して主君を守る弁慶。その機転と豪胆さで見事に窮地を脱するという、息もつかせぬ展開と人数物ならではの迫力と緊張感に満ちた能。

Shima dance: Miwa Kuse, played by Umewaka Shinaga

Kasuga Dragon God: Umewaka Kagehide

Kyogen: Kenbutsuzaemon, played by Nomura Yuki

Noh: Ataka, played by Kanze Atsuo

Kenbutsuzaemon

A man named Kenbutsuzaemon goes to see the Fukakusa Festival at Fujinomori Shrine in Fukakusa, Kyoto, and while looking around, he ends up wrestling himself...

This is a Kyogen play handed down only in the Izumi school, featuring a solo performance as its highlight.

Ataka

After the fall of the Taira clan, Yoshitsune, pursued by his brother Yoritomo, disguises himself as a mountain ascetic and heads to Oshu with Benkei and others. Hearing this, Yoritomo erected new checkpoints in various places and ordered strict controls on the passage of mountain ascetics.

The location was Kaga Province. Yoshitsune and his party approached the Ataka Barrier, which was guarded by a certain Togashi. They pretended to be mountain ascetics fundraising for the reconstruction of Todaiji Temple, and disguised Yoshitsune as a warrior in an attempt to pass through. However, Togashi insisted that he would not let any mountain ascetics pass, so the party began their final religious service, determined to be punished accordingly. Overwhelmed by their spirit, Togashi ordered them to read the Kanjincho (fundraising scroll) aloud, as Benkei was quick to disguise it as the Kanjincho and read it aloud in a loud voice. Impressed by his quick thinking, Togashi allowed the party to pass.

However, noticing that the warrior accompanying them resembled Yoshitsune, Togashi confronted the party again. The group holds their swords close, nervously bracing for their master's safety. Despite the potentially explosive situation, Benkei calmly controls the situation, mercilessly beating Yoshitsune with his staff, claiming that Yoshitsune's strength is similar to Yoshitsune's. The two continue to face off fiercely, but finally, overwhelmed by the group's spirit, Togashi allows them to pass.

Relieved that nothing bad happened, the group leaves the barrier and rests for a while. When Benkei apologizes for his earlier rudeness, Yoshitsune, in return, praises his quick thinking and laments his current state of affairs.

Togashi then appears, chasing after them to apologize for his earlier rudeness, and offers them sake. Benkei accepts the sake cup, dances vigorously, and hurries off to Oshu.

This masterpiece of contemporary Noh is known as the prototype for the Kabuki play "Kanjincho." Cornered, Benkei risks his life to protect his lord. His quick wit and boldness allow him to escape the predicament with a breathtaking plot and the powerful tension that only a multi-act play can offer.
