Hige no Ikyu (literally, 'Mustache Ikyu'), a male villain in the play is said to have been modeled after Danzaemon Shusei (集誓) who died in 1709 (it is said that the first performance clearly portrayed Ikyu as a personality from the discriminated community called Buraku). |
悪役の髭の意休は、1709年に死去した弾左衛門集誓をモデルにしたと言われている(特に初期の公演では、意休が被差別部落の人間であることがはっきり分かる描写があったという)。 |
