Play: Sendai Hagi (先代萩 )
Performance Place: Kabuki-za,
Tokyo
Performance Date: ?
Print Date: 05/05/02
Image courtesy of the Tsubouchi
Memorial Theatre Museum

Note: This is a strange print, as there
was no production of Sendai Hagi at
the Kabuki-za in or around May 1902.
While the actors' names cannot be
clearly read, what can be read
suggests that it might reflect the cast
of a production at the Kabuki-za in
April 1908. An on-line dealer has a
copy which purports to be dated
1912. Could there be multiple
printings of this set over the years,
and Tsuouchi Memorial Theatre
Museum's copy contain the first
page from one set and the last page
(with the printing information) from
another set? Was there a revised
version of Sendai Hagi mounted at
the Kabuki-za in 1902 under a
different name?

Note: This design is a recycled version of one used for a performance at the Shintomi-za in
April 1902 with a different cast. The image of Danjûrô IX as Inuyama Dôsetsu was also
used for a memorial print by Kunisada in 1903.
