Hiroshima Kagura Performance Entry Ticket
Description
Kagura troupes from Hiroshima Prefecture will perform the traditional performing art of "Hiroshima Kagura" on a weekly basis. Based on Japanese mythology and classical literature, performers in gorgeous costumes dance gracefully to the accompaniment of lively music. English subtitles are also available, allowing visitors from overseas to experience traditional culture in a more intimate setting. We occasionally offer backstage tours after the performance, which require an additional fee. These tours include explanations from the performers and an opportunity to interact with them. You can try on costumes and masks, take commemorative photos, and even ask questions directly to the performers after they've finished dancing. If you'd like to learn more about Kagura, please book this plan.

Perfect: actors , musiciens and stage customs are incredibles. It a traditional Japanese art with history The stage customs were incredible, wonderful
Fantastic, not-to-be-missed event. The explanation in English at the beginning of the performance was extremely helpful in understanding the action on stage. The performers and the musicians were excellent. Highly recommend. And when you buy through Viator you are guaranteed great seats.
A lovely performance. Incredible costumes, choreography, and music. Highly recommend for anyone in Hiroshima on a Wednesday night!
It was an incredible show. Very traditional, artistic and expressive, I loved it. The English supertitles were very much appreciated.
What an amazing performance. Highly recommend this show if your in Hiroshima
This was an amazing and exciting experience. We were blown away by the skills of the troupe and we are now fans of Kagura.
Excellent performance and well worth seeing. The subtitle screen definitely helped a foreigner like me understand the story.
The Kagura performance was terrific. The performers are very talented and the costumes are amazing. I had never even heard of Kagura before but was looking for a performance while I was here in Hiroshima. Highly, highly recommend. The price is very reasonable and the performance lasts less than 1 hour. It was excellent.
Started promptly. Good to have English explanation about history and story. Beautiful costumes. The show was just the right length. Excellent musicians
No what I expected. I thought I was going to see the dragons. It was nice to see the first opening show of the season. It was a little boring but the action scenes were good. It was very considerate for them to have translations on the screen. Cheers and kudos to the musicians and actors.
