This first book-length study of Kanze Kojiro Nobumitsu (1435-1516) provides a detailed analysis of the late Muromachi noh practitioner and his work and concludes with a critique of the furyu noh category in present-day noh discourse. By highlighting the significance of Nobumitsu as well as the noh plays created in his time, Lim introduces an important practitioner into the English language scholarship and provides a new perspective from which the canon can be debated.

Industry Reviews

Another Stage provides students of no with tools to appreciate Nobumitsu, his plays, and his time.... [The] chapters portray the no when it was clearly a living and vibrant art, motivated by the creativity of its writers and actors, as well as the appetites of the broad-based audience that supported them. Another Stage paints a picture very different from what moderns usually think of as constituting the no and will be useful for students and scholars interested in this often overlooked period of theater history.
