昨日は、一年間日本に留学していたハワイ大学の大学院生ジェーンがお友だちと芝居を観に来てくれました
今日の帰国を前に、貴重な時間を使って来てくれたこと、とてもうれしく思います
とても楽しくて、離日前に観ることができて良かったと大喜びでした
日本に短期留学や遊びに来ていたハワイ大学演劇舞踊科の学生たちや卒業生、J.イエッツイー教授も、みんなハワイへ戻っていき寂しいです
でもこれは8月21日から始まる新学期に備えるため
いよいよハワイ大学での今回の歌舞伎の授業が始まります
まずは瀧昇くんと卯瀧くんが10月初めから、僕は10月の末から現地での指導が始まります
そして4月には、大学内のケネディー劇場にて一週間に亘る公演が行われます
門之助🤞
Jane, a graduate student of the University of Hawaii, who has been studying in Japan, came to see the show with her friend at the Kabukiza last night.
She said, “It was a lot of fun!! I really liked it! Glad I could caught it before I left.”
Such an honor to know that she spent her valuable time at the theater upon leaving for Honolulu today.
Almost everyone from the university have left Japan for Honolulu.
So sad, but this is because they need to get prepared for the new semester starting from the next Monday.
Kabuki season at the University of Hawaii is starting.
Takisho kun and Utaki kun will be heading to Hawaii in the beginning of October and I, in the end of October to teach the students in classes.
And the Kabuki production will raise the curtain in the next April at the Kennedy Theater in the university.
