More information on Miyoshi Engeijyo

The Miyoshi Engeijyo is a must see for those with an interest in Japanese popular culture. It is a far cry from the regular tourist attractions and this makes it all the more attractive. Even if you can not understand Japanese, you will enjoy the atmosphere of this wonderful, down-to-earth theater. Rakugo, the comic art of Japanese story-telling done by one performer sitting in the center of the stage, is popular here, and these one-man shows are amazing. Enka, melancholic Japanese songs, the kind heard when mature crooners take the stage in a karaoke bar, is another popular genre here. There is seating for 168 with boxes for 17.
