Noh Workshop

Women's club trip to a Noh Workshop. The Noh master has a stage in his house and very kindly invited us to learn the basics of the song, movement and drumming. Here are a few photos of the 'movement' part of the workshop. To be allowed on the stage, you must wear the tabi (socks with a big toe, like a mitten). You never pick your feet up, only glide along the stage without moving your hips. We balanced the fan on our heads to keep good posture!
