2007年8月28日(火)19時26分
1994年、「若者の街・渋谷から江戸歌舞伎を発信したい」という思いで、中村勘三郎（当時は勘九郎）が、串田和美らとともに東京・渋谷のBunkamuraシアターコクーンでスタートさせた「コクーン歌舞伎」。WOWOWは昨年に引き続き、今年の最新作「コクーン歌舞伎 三人吉三」を9月24日(月)前10・20～放送。
　 8回目を迎える今回の演目は、2001年に第4弾として上演し、好評を得た「三人吉三（さんにんきちさ）」。今回の上演にあたって、串田和美の新演出に加え、音楽を椎名林檎が担当。大詰めでは、大量の雪と音楽と立ち回りという新たな名場面が誕生するなど、より進化したステージが展開される。作品を知りつくした観客にとっても、初めて作品に触れる観客にとっても、驚きと興奮の連続。
　 出演は、三人の吉三、和尚吉三に中村勘三郎、お嬢吉三に中村福助、お坊吉三に中村橋之助。ほか、中村勘太郎、中村七之助、片岡亀蔵、笹野高史と豪華メンバーが勢ぞろい。躍動感溢れるステージの模様を、テレビの前の特等席でたっぷりと！

"Cocoon kabuki" that Kanzaburo Nakamura (At that time, it is Kankuro) started with Kazumi Kushida et al. by the Bunkamura theater cocoon of Tokyo and Shibuya in 1994 for the desire "I want to send the Edo kabuki from young person's town and Shibuya". The first is broadcast as WOWOW continues last year.

A repertoire this time when the eighth times are faced is "San nin ki chi sa" that presents as the fourth bounce in 2001, and received a fevoreble reception. It undertakes this presentation, and the Shiina ringo takes charge of music in addition to the new production of Kazumi Kushida. In the last act, the stage that evolved more as a large amount of snow, music, and a new great scene of moving about are born etc. is developed. It knows the work and the continuousness of the surprise and the excitement for the spectator who touches the work for the first time for the spectator who did for it to attach.

The pattern of the stage where the throb feeling overflows enough in VIP seat in front of the television.

So basically, a performance of that Kabuki play Ringo wrote the "Cocoon" song for will be broadcast. So hopefully there's a chance of someone ripping the song/video and letting us all hear it.

kroneko, in the future, don't post an entry that's all Japanese. This isn't a Japanese-language forum.

[Canto]

now all i wanna ask is...
WHERE TO FIND THE SONG?
ONEGAI!

[badtzmaru]

O_O So, the song's name is "Cocoon"! Thanks for the information, kroneko!

Yeah, is it good, Emil?? >_< Is it enka-style?

Ringo looks so pretty... T_T

[EmilScherbe]

Cocoon is theater's name.
The song name is "Tamatebako" (Pandora's Box).

If anything is similar to SR/TJ song IMHO it is Yukiguni
led by distorted guitar instead of piano and developed
to electro-orchestraized Komoriuta.

This song is used at last several miniutes climax.

Kabuki, Karisome Otome Death Jazz-ver, Bokoku Joshou was used
at curtain call.

I recorded to my HDD recorder then copied to DVD-RAM,
but DVD drive of my PC can't play it.

[badtzmaru]

Oh oopsies, sorry! "Tamatebako" is an interesting song name. I'm glad to hear that it sounds like "Yukiguni." @_@ *huggles Emil* >_<

o_o Uh oh, I think it's time to call Glath (if it's fixable)!

I wonder if they will be showing any of Tamatebako on the special? Might be able to get it in better quality, finally (I know thats a really hollow reason to watch the show, but you know...)
