Kyōgen is a form of traditional Japanese comic theater. It developed alongside Noh, was performed along with Noh as an intermission of sorts between Noh acts on the same stage. Kyōgen is a comic form, and its primary goal is to make its audience laugh.

Kyōgen is sometimes compared to the Italian comic form of commedia dell'arte, which developed around the same period (14th century) and likewise features stock characters. It also has parallels with the Greek satyr play, a short, comical play performed between tragedies.

The play will be held in Japanese with French translation. We will have a drink before the play for those interested in the area of the theatre (the play is at 6 pm). Please let me know if you will be interested for the drink.
We will be meeting at 5:45 pm outside in front of the entrance of the performance hall (after the stairs)
