The 2008/2009 season, the second for Uyama Artistic Director, for plays opens with Mishima Yukio’s “Modern Noh Plays”. In recent years, productions by Miwa Akihiro, David Leveaux, and Ninagawa Yukio have made this a topical piece, and this season “Aya no Tsudumi” and “Yoroboshi” will be performed out of the 8 works of the “Modern Noh Plays”. Young screenwriter and director Maeda Shiro and Fukatsu Shigefumi will challenge “Modern Noh Plays” with a clean slate, the latter director having earned critical acclaims in his NNTT debut directing Kishida Kunio’s “Doin Sowa”, which won him the excellent Director award in the Yomiuri Theater Awards, and he will be directing “Doin Sowa” again in February-March of 2008. “Aya no Tsudumi” and “Yoroboshi” will be performed successively, and many actors will be in both plays. A point of interest will be to see how the leading actress Toake Yukiyo will play the two completely different roles of Sakurama Shinako in “Yoroboshi” and Hanako in “Aya no Tsudumi”, and many other actors will also be faced with similar challenges. “Modern Noh Plays” by Mishima Yukio contains many themes, but one aspect that it has in common is his bold spirit and his respect for classic literature. Not only has Mishima Yukio successfully modernized Noh with this work, he is also credited for “creating 20th century literally masterpieces”.
