Time Out says

Kyogen, a traditional form of comedic spoken drama, has been performed for more than 600 years. This event is the ultimate chance to see what it's all about, as an all-star cast of performers will be entertaining the audience with classic plays. Both masters of the field, some of them designated 'Living National Treasures', and the next generation of performers will be appearing in plays like 'Sanbaso', 'Kirokuda' and 'Funawatashimuko'. Audio guidance in English is available.
