BENTO RAKUGO

Rakugo (Japanese translation: "fallen words") is one of the most popular forms of Japanese theatre, with a tradition spanning more than 300 years. In Rakugo, the performer presents a comic story while sitting on a Japanese cushion throughout the entire performance, speaking all of the voices in both the first person and third person. All stories will be spoken in English. Bento Rakugo is a dynamic group formed in 2011 whose mission is to honor traditional Rakugo and also bring a modern twist to the Japanese comedy. Bento Rakugo has performed in libraries, theatres, and cultural events throughout Hawaii.

This one-hour event is suitable for ages 5 & older. Young children must be accompanied by a parent or caregiver.

Program is sponsored by the Friends of the Library of Hawaii, Atherton Family Foundation, Hawaii State Federal Credit Union, HEI Charitable Foundation, Meadow Gold Dairies, HMS Host, Hansen Distribution Group, Armstrong Produce, DFS Hawaii, Roberts Hawaii, Toshiba Business Solutions and Aloha United Way. This program is a production of the University of Hawaii at Manoa Outreach College Statewide Cultural Extension Program with additional funding provided by National Endowment for the Arts, Hawaii State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, and the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
