PAS DE TROIS: AN ARTIST, AN ACTOR & A BALLERINA- IACOVLEFF, UTAEMON, PAVLOVA
2023
Overview
Steiner profiles Kabuki actor Nakamura Utaemon V, highlighting a portrait of the actor by Alexandre Iacovleff. Utaemon V was a specialist in female roles, an onnagata ad was an eminent representative of a glorious family of thespians and, as his 1940 obituary in The New York Times put it, \"the dean of Kabuki actors at the Kabuki-za in Tokyo.\" His greatness was attested to by the bestowal of the prestigious stage name Utaemon of the Nakamura line, after a hiatus of sixty years following the death of Utaemon IV (1798-1852). He was 46 at the time, and to celebrate his name change (shumei bird kogyo), Utaemon V played the role of a young maiden, Hanako, in the well-known Kabuki dance Musume Dojo-ji.
