- Mino Kabuki Museum - Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Kabuki, one of Japan’s most renowned traditional performing arts, at the historic Aioiza Theater in Mizunami, Gifu. This charming wooden theater has been the venue for local Mino Kabuki performances for over a hundred years, maintaining the essence of community theater that thrives today.
Engage in this interactive cultural experience by transforming into a Kabuki performer. Begin with a complete Kabuki makeup session (Kumadori style), followed by donning a traditional wig and vibrant costume. Under the guidance of a local Kabuki master, rehearse a brief mini-drama scene and then perform it on the authentic Kabuki stage used for real performances.
After the performance, enjoy a photo session in costume and create your own “Oshikuma” (face imprint) — a distinctive keepsake crafted from your painted Kabuki makeup. This creative and personal experience is perfect for those looking to connect deeply with Japan’s living traditions.
