seiyuu rakugo matsuri 2020 cast

Seiyuu take upon them the challenge of performing Rakugo.

Seiyuu Rakugo Tenguren Matsuri 2020 is going to run from 08/01/2020 to 12/01/2020 at Kinokuniya Hall in Tokyo.

For those not familiar with Rakugo, a brief note: Rakugo is a form of verbal entertainment dating back to the 9th century. It is performed solo with the actor staying in seiza for the whole performance often performing complex stories – comedy or drama – with more than 2 characters. Changes between characters are noticeable from different voice pitch, tone or a slight turn of the head.

Show Hayami, Subaru Kimura, Tasuku Hatanaka, Yukihiro Nozuyama, Kengo Kawanishi, Masashi Igarashi, Kappei Yamaguchi, Koichi Yamadera, Yuichi Jose, Kenji Akabane, Hisanori Yoshida and Youhei Azakami.
