Traditional Theatre Training's 24th annual summer institute
Study noh, kyogen, and nihonbuyo in Kyoto

Applications are now being accepted for a three-week training course
in Kyoto July 18-Aug 11, 2008. Participants may choose to study noh,
kyogen, or nihonbuyo daily for three weeks, with a recital on August
11 at the Oe Noh Theatre. Designed for first-time students of
Japanese arts and veterans wishing to go deeper, for artists and
teachers, Japanese and non-Japanese, these intensive, daily lessons
will offer an unprecedented compression and intimacy.

Classes will be held in air-conditioned studios within the Kyoto Art
Center, Shijo-Muromachi in downtown Kyoto. Participants are limited
to 8 persons per class. No Japanese language ability is needed
(kyogen requires basic Japanese conversational ability).

Shingo Katayama, Hiromichi Tamoi and Nobuyuki Oe of the Kanze school
will teach noh, short dances (shimai) and song (utai). Senrei
Nishikawa of the Nishikawa school will teach nihonbuyo folk and
kabuki-based classical dances. Akira Shigeyama, Doji Shigeyama and
Yasushi Maruishi of the Okura school teach kyogen, short dances
(komai) and the play Shibiri (Cramps!).

T.T.T. was founded in 1984 to bridge the barriers of time, language,
and money that make studying traditional Japanese forms difficult for
short-term students. Since then 220 students from 18 countries have
participated.
