Society to Sponsor Performance by Grand Master of Japanese Classical Dance
The opportunity to experience a performance by one who has achieved the status of iemoto or Grand Master status is very rare outside Japan.
But on June 11, 2006 at 1:00 p.m. at George Mason University’s Harris Theater, Iemoto Onoe Kikunojo II will perform a selection of classical dances that herald a true master.
Critically acclaimed throughout his homeland, Onoe Kikunojo II is the Iemoto of the Onoe Ryu School of Dance in Japan. This school combines elements from the classical dance forms of Noh and Kabuki, imbuing them with new levels of discipline, power, and creativity. Renowned Kabuki actors, as well as stars of stage and screen, consider him a teacher, mentor and source of creative energy.
The Japan-America Society is proud to sponsor this performance by the Iemoto, in cooperation with the George Mason University Center for the Arts and Onoe Ryu Dance Enterprises.
Tickets for the performance by Iemoto Onoe Kikunojo II are $50, $40 and $35 and can be purchased by phone at 888-945-2468 or by visiting www.tickets.com.
The Harris Theater is part of the Center for the Arts complex located on the Fairfax campus of George Mason University at the intersection of Braddock Road and Route 123. Paid parking is located in the deck adjacent to the Harris Theater on level 3 and free parking is located in University Lot K. Visit www.gmu.edu/cfa for further details.
