This is a summary of the play, for those who don't speak Japanese: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izutsu It's a very cute play! An ancient love-story. One of the more fun Noh plays, imho. It's one of my favorites, anyway.
Do you have any recs for someone trying to get into Noh, but struggling? I don’t know what it is but I’m having a really hard time maintaining interest in any of the plays I’ve sat down to watch. It’s weird because I can watch a billion recordings of Kyomai style dance from the Inoue school, which is heavily inspired by Noh but when I try to watch the actual thing my attention starts to wander about a minute into it, it’s so upsetting lol
