The Wicked Priest and the Seductive Princess・Narukami EXPLAINED (1684)

The remarkable play known as Narukami stands as a precious example of the style of jun kabuki ("pure kabuki") from the late XVII century, previous to the influence from the bunraku puppet theatre. It is also a classic example of the aragoto acting style of Danjūrō family, and therefore one of the most treasured works of the Naritaya house. I want to thank the late James R. Brandon for his wonderful translation of this play in his book "Kabuki: Five Classic Plays", which is adapted here to illustrate some of the scenes. In addition to the music of Narukami, I have used the nagauta composition Ninin Wankyu for the background music. The performance of the play seen here was recorded in February 2008, at the Hakata-za theatre in Fukuoka, by the great actors Kataoka Ainosuke VI and Nakamura Shichinosuke II.
