Rakugo is a Japanese traditional story telling.
The story teller sits on a flat cushion wearing kimono and tells funny stories which have been told over and over. The story itself usually well known already but the way he tells make the story funny.
The teller use his(most of teller are men) fan and a handkerchief to express the scene. The fan can be a pair of chopsticks or the cloth can be a wallet or else.
Anyway we had the opportunity to go and see Rakugo the other day. It was fun. My younger one got bored at the last half though I really enjoyed it.
It was funny for me to experience Japanese traditional thing in the first time in here NY.
