I am taking a theatre arts appreciation class and recently was assigned a group project for the history of theatre. My partner and I chose Bunraku, Japanese Puppet theatre. Our teacher wants it to be creative and being a student of the Japanese language I thought it would be really fun to do the introduction in Japanese which my partner will translate. I ran into the problem of the last part of the introduction being beyond my ability. If somebody could take a look and translate it into Japanese that would be very helpful and I’d be very appreciative.
“Today we will be talking about Bunraku Theatre, Japanese Puppet Theatre also called ningyo joruri and once known as ayatsuri joruri shibai.”
That is the part I’m having a hard time translating to Japanese. There is a lot of Kanji I’m still not familiar with so if you could respond writing it in Hiragana primarily that would be appreciated. Also if you have any ideas of things I should add to my Japanese introduction I’d like to hear your suggestions. Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
