EnglishRAKUGO by Rina

On Saturday, I went to see rakugo with my friends. The rakugoka's name is Katsura Kaishi. I knew his name but I have never seen his rakugo. My father likes rakugo. He often watches it on TV so I am also interested in it. I had been looking forward to seeing rakugo and English-rakugo. By the way Kaishi was a kind gentleman. He was friendly even though he is a famous person, so my friend and I were able to talk to him a lot. However, once he goes on stage, his face changes to a professional face. He looked neater than usual. His rakugo was very, very amusing. He used only fa an and a hand towel but we could imagine a situation. It was great! I think he is also a good actor. Rakugo was only for old people, I thought, because it was difficult to understand it. However, it was not so difficult. I enjoyed it. It was the first time I saw the English-rakugo but it was also interesting for me. I began to like rakugo. I would like to see it again soon. I felt Kaishi is a great person because he tells wonderful Japanese culture all over the world. He is a pride of Japan. I will support him.
