Rakugo Space Ochiba

Rakugo is a story of a comical world where sloppy, unreliable people gather. It's easy to mistake it for an old tale from the Edo period, but human nature hasn't really changed all that much, then or now. Once you dive into this world, it will laugh away the rigid seriousness of our overly earnest daily lives. So I'm proposing an immersive activity, staged in urban space, that lets people relive the stories of rakugo and the sensibility, or “ryoken,” behind them.
