Tied to a Pole


(Based on the Kyogen play of the same name.)

Two In One Hakama


(Based on the kabuki play of the same name.)

A young man has to make a formal visit to his future father-in-law. He doesn't want to go alone and asks his older brother to accompany him for support. While the groom-to-be is inside paying his respects to his father-in-law, his brother is seen waiting outside. The father-in-law insists that both men join him for the toast to the new couple. But the brothers have a problem: They only have one pair of formal dress pants (Hakama) and have to find a way to share them...
