Overview

ANU Za Kabuki is the longest running traditional Japanese kabuki troupe in the Southern Hemisphere!

This year's production, Keyamura, weaves together themes of betrayal, hidden identities, and revenge. With its bold characters, stylised fight scenes, and moments of both intensity and humour, Keyamura embodies everything that makes kabuki such a distinctive and thrilling art form.

Performed entirely in traditional Japanese, the production preserves the authenticity and beauty of classical Kabuki. To make the experience accessible, ANU Za Kabuki provides live English subtitles, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in the rhythm and atmosphere of Kabuki theatre while following the story with ease.

Whether you are a long-time lover of Japanese theatre or discovering kabuki for the first time, Keyamura promises an evening of culture, drama, and unforgettable storytelling!
