Say you happen to be in Osaka when the bunraku performance is going on. If you want to just take a peek at Bunraku, is there a way?
The National Bunraku Theatre website shows you how to do just that. Called "Makumi-seki (幕見席), you get to see only part of the performance at a discounted price.
The Makumi-seki tickets are available only at the box office of the theatre on the day of the performance. The tickets are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis. After purchasing a ticket, you go up to the second floor 10 minutes before the door opens.
The usher will escort you to your seat. And the English audio guide is available as well.
