Speaking of Onnagata, the 5th generation Tamasaburo Bando, a Kabuki actor who is a living national treasure, is very famous.

I first became interested in Onnagata when I saw the performance of Taichi Saotome, the head of the theater company Sujaku.

The age group of the audience seats is exactly men and women of all ages. Everyone in the audience was captivated by the innovative and powerful production that incorporated the video into the sword fight on the stage and the glamorous and beautiful appearance of Onnnagata.

Saotome has also appeared in "Ao no Ran" along with Gekidan Shinkansen's stage "Seven People of Skull Castle" and Yuki Amami, who is famous for the male role of former Takarazuka Revue.

I really like the role of Momoyama Sandayu of Onnagata in "Anmitsu Hime" and the role of Suzuhiko Hime in "shabake".

In this "Anmitsu Hime" starring Mao Inoue, gorgeous casts such as Kiyoshi Nakajo, Masaki Kyomoto, Emi Wakui, and Mari Natsuki appear.

Saotome currently belongs to LDH JAPAN, and in her masterpiece "HiGH & LOW ~ THE STORY OF S.W.O.R.D. ~", she will play the role of assassin Ryu Tatsuhito and will have gained more fans.
His true acting and quickness when fighting are alive and well.

Onnagata also appears in "Hissatsu Shigotonin V Fierce Fighting Edition". Tomio Umezawa who played the role of "Ni".
The plump lips and dignified expression around the eyes are very bewitching.
In the play, you can see the same Ki nagashi figure as the man in the town, but because of the unique atmosphere of the face, it has a presence that you can't take your eyes off.
