Dojoji / Kan Nishikawa @Kabukiza Theatre

Dojoji / Kan Nishikawa
◆Legend of Dojoji Temple
This is based on the legend of Dojoji Temple. There were handsome priest named Anchin and a young girl named Kiyo-hime.
They loved each other however, he choosed his faith over Kiyo-hime. But she could not forget him and continued to pursue him with great persistence. However, her love turned into a deep hatred and she turned into a fire-breathing big serpent. The terrified priest ran to Dôjôji Temple and hid beneath its huge bell, which the abbot lowered over him. In frustration the serpent coiled itself around the bell and poured fire out from its mouth until the bell melted down and the priest burned to death.
Since then no women have been allowed to enter Dojoji temple.
◆Story
In Dojoji Temple, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
The dancer named Hanako who came to the Dojoji temple where a ceremony is held to celebrate the installation of a new bell which was destroyed by a big serpent. The monks are surprised by the appearance of a young woman at the temple. Hanako is a shirabyoshi (dancer) and says she would like to see the bell. Women are not allowed at the ceremony, but Hanako is eventually allowed in on condition that she perform for them. First she dances with a hat, then with a hand towel, then with one after another. Before long her dancing arouses some strange feelings in the priests for every time she changes her kimono she emits an weird atmosphere. Remembering the story of Anchin and Kiyo-hime, the priests begin to drive her out of the temple. However she climbs the huge bell, revealing herself to be serpent（the spirit of Kiyo-hime）.

Very very beautiful! I am not a specialist, of course, but it has come to my attention that some of the monks were played by women, right? This is a new trend?

Thank you very much! You are right. She deceived the monks only to enter Dojoji Temple. She is actually legendary serpent.
