下北郷土芸能公演会 2025.3.8　踊り獅子（七軒丁）　（栗山太神楽保存会） #むつ市 #郷土芸能 #下北 #shimokita #神楽 #能 #noh

This is one of the Shishi Kagura dances that has been widely performed throughout the Shimokita Peninsula, centered around Higashidori Village in Shimokita District, Aomori Prefecture. Originally a Noh dance of Shimokita transmitted by mountain ascetics (Yamabushi Shugendo). It is said to be a typical example of Shugendo Noh, incorporating elements of Sarugaku, Dengaku, and Kyokumai, based on Shugendo practices, and retaining many aspects of medieval performing arts such as narrative dances. This video shows the Kuriyama Daikagura Preservation Society of Mutsu City performing the Odori Shishi (dancing lion) dance at the Mutsu Kasamai Hall in Mutsu City, Aomori Prefecture, on March 8, 2026 (Reiwa 8).
