¡Hayashiya Taihei
Description
[Machine Translation] Taihei's two gems of light-hearted laughter and heartfelt love! This year's two plays are "The Well Bowl", a touching tale of upright samurai and townspeople, and "Yabuiri", a touching portrayal of the love between a father and son. Please enjoy the performance of Taipei that will make you listen. Yabu-iri" -- Until the Showa period (1926-1989), there was a custom of apprenticeship in which children were sent to live and work in a merchant's house as part of their training. Kumagoro and his wife are anxiously awaiting the return of their son, Kame, from his apprenticeship. The time has flown by since the night before, and they are impatiently waiting for their son Kame to return. When they meet Kame on his return, he seems to be at a loss for words.... This is a very moving piece of work that could only have been written by Taihei himself. The Tea Bowl at the Well" -- Seibei, a scrapyard owner, is a man of unparalleled honesty. Today, he takes custody of a Buddhist statue from a poor ronin, Chiyoda Tosai, at the back of his tenement and decides to sell it. A young samurai named Takagi Sakuzaemon, under the patronage of Lord Hosokawa, buys the statue and finds 50 ryo of gold inside. The honest Takagi sought out Seibei to return the money to the owner of the Buddha statue, but Chiyoda stubbornly refused to accept it. The battle of wills between the honest samurai over the Buddha image develops into an unexpected form. And in the end, there is a happy ending. Taihei cheerfully depicts Seibei's right-and-left struggle between the two samurai, with a laugh.
