Actors tend to have a series of Myoseki (stage names) that evolve and change over time. (eg. an actor may take an initial name of `Kotaro NAKAMURA` that is subsequently changed to `Fukusuke NAKAMURA` and ends up as `Utaemon NAKAMURA` after a period being known as of `Shikan NAKAMURA`) |
たとえば初名中村児太郎が中村福助になり、中村芝翫を経て中村歌右衛門になるといったように、出世魚式の名跡のリレーが見られる。 |
