Kobe Shinkaichi Kirakukan is the only permanent yose (vaudeville theater) in Hyogo Prefecture, opened in July 2018. It holds rakugo and other performances daily. Operating 365 days a year, you can fully enjoy Kamigata rakugo. The 'Genki Yose' project was launched by the theater in September 2021. It started with the intention of 'cheering people up with laughter through rakugo during a situation where non-essential outings and interactions were restricted due to the spread of the novel coronavirus.' The series continues today and is generally held every Thursday evening.
For future archive streams, 5 performances will be added on the first Thursday of every month (until October 2026). As part of the unlimited viewing content on 'Pia Rakugo Zanmai', you can watch them at no additional cost. Please enjoy the continuously added, exquisite Kamigata rakugo performance videos.
