The master Noh actor of the Kita School, Akira Matsui, will offer a 2-hour workshop on Noh singing, movement, and perhaps a demonstration piece for performance as well. He will be accompanied by Richard Emmert, who is himself a distinguished practitioner in Noh, and has composed Noh. He would be able to translate for Matsui.

Akira Matsui is a visiting professional shite actor to the Noh Training Project UK, and an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Holloway University of London.
