KITSUNE-ZUKA (The Fox Mound)
Tarokaja is ordered to go to a field of grain to drive away the birds. The area is known as the Fox Mound where clever foxes are said to trick people by appearing in human form. As Tarokaja works to drive away the birds, the master and Jirokaja come to check how Tarokaja is doing.
MATSUMUSHI (Pine Crickets)
A man ventures into the wilds in search of his friend who has vanished like dew on grass. He never gives up, even as he himself becomes a ghost. On an autumn night filled with the sound of singing insects, he dances a dance in memory of his friend. This play depicts friendship between men with rich poetic imagery.
