Born in Tokyo, 1982, after enrolling in the Faculty of Letters at Kyoto University, he became apprentice and supporting actor to Tanida Soujiro, Waki-kata Noh in 2007. In the same year, he made his stage debut with Saigyō-zakura as Wakitsure. Since Master Tanida’s passing, he has studied under Master Iitomi Tadasuke, and has performed master pieces such as Shōjō-Midare, Dōjō-ji, and Chō Ryō (Zhang Liang). He has also participated in overseas performances across America and France, Russia, Malaysia, Bulgaria, Slovakia and South Korea. During university lectures, he aims to convey the charm of the classics such as Nohgaku and Waka poetry and strives to maintain that Noh is a performing art that lives on and is still relevant to the present age.
