<span style=”font-weight: 400;”>A rakugo cafe, ‘Shoan,’ opened in Hakata Ward this fall. As one of the few cafes featuring Japan’s traditional storytelling entertainment, the shop welcomes professional and amateur performers to perform for guests. Professional performances typically require tickets, while some events, including student rakugo, can be enjoyed without charge by cafe users.
