Kamikita Small Kabuki Background
The Narikomi Brothers have been captivated by Kabuki since childhood, crafting their own scripts and performances influenced by their father, Nakamura Shikan. As they grew older, they transformed their passion into a dream of producing their own independent performances.
The name 'Kamikita Small Kabuki' reflects both their sense of place—Kamikita, the home of Narikomi—and their ambition to someday transition into larger Kabuki productions. United with a common purpose, they continue their dedicated efforts toward the fifth performance.
