It was my first time to watch the traditional Japanese Puppet Theater.
Chanted words were difficult to understand.
But, fortunately, someone could explain to me the summary of the story during the intermission.
She's an avid fan of this Bunraku (also known as Ningyo Joruri).
We also had the chance to visit the back stage.....
High wooden clogs wrapped in straw wear by the omo-zukai (main puppeteer) who manipulates the puppet's head, face and right hand.
