Kabuki, the tsuchigumo (ground spider)

The final act in a traditional Kabuki play. The ground spider (tsuchigumo) captures the main characters.

I always wonder how they manage to walk, more incredibly, dance in that multilayered long dragging pants without being tripped over. This skill is an art itself.

If you go to Japan, spend the money and make time for a kabuki theatre. It's seriously epic. Don't forget to rent a translation device from the theatre.

The giant enemy spider. **beatboxing intensifies**

Theater in all cultures is so fascinating to me. I absolutely love this. I hope to go to Japan one day and experience live kabuki for myself.

Yes, I really enjoy the fact that Kabuki is rediscovered again. Japan's contributions never stops to amaze the world.

Tsuchigumo is so cool! ♡○♡ I love the webs!

I don't really understand this art form but love to see the actors performing, it looks like hard work for them though.

As if spiders weren’t already terrifying enough

Now I see how they make this work for Arachnus.

I just discovered this via anime and the makeup is crazy. It looks just like old Japanese art depictions

[lindaterrell]

I wonder if they reuse the webs and who gets to comb them out.

Can you give more info? Where was this shot? was this off DVD?

[madurangak]

What a fucking dance, I was scared of dreams
