Abstract

In the Edo Period, the principal actor of noh was able to perform with financial assistance from the Shognate for once in his life. The Noh Theater was so spacious as to accommodate 2000 to 10000 audiences for 15 consecutive days, including the Daimyos and the citizens from the whole area of Edo. In exploring four examples, an attempt is made to clarify the ancient Noh Theater venue as symbolical cases.
