Excellent always. Many many visits, and they always treat me wonderfully. Get there around 9 am and line up, one act seats go fast.

Great experience definitely go for the English guide if you don't speak Japanese. I went 30mins before to get the single performance ticket (around 45 mins) . the people who worked at the ticket desk helped me choose which one!

Incredible experience. Overwhelming but approachable. Worth the visit if you can get a ticket

Possibly the best thing I’ve ever seen in Tokyo. Amazing. I recommend everyone to see this.

Good way to experience a traditional Japanese performance. If you can't understand Japanese, highly recommend renting a translator. Also consider just attending the first act of a performance if you aren't sure whether you'll enjoy it. (full performance is about 4 hours long)

Wow! I would highly recommend this experience. I went to the last act for the evening show and it was pretty underwhelming so I decided to give it another shot and go for a middle act ticket. I am so glad I did. It was a very cool experience. Beautiful venue, talented actors and friendly/helpful staff. Do get there earlier than the sale times though. If you show up later you'll have to stand.

It's a very interesting Japanese cultural experience. They do have English brochures and rent out private translation devices that really helped me understand what was going on. The tickets are expensive, but a full show includes about 4 hours of performance. I'm disappointed with how uncomfortable the seats were. After the show finished I was very stiff and in pain.

It's a 5 star Japanese experience. It can be done cheaply (~$20) if you're happy to stand in the gallery, which is a balcony at the back of the theatre. The high vantage point provides a clear view and isn't too far from the stage. To do this you need to wait outside to line up to the left of the theatre in the morning, from memory at 10 or 11am. They offer english translations using a walkman, do accept it as it makes a big difference to the overall experience. You'll be left guessing as to the story and dialogue otherwise.

The best place to experience Kabuki in Tokyo. It's frequented by Japanese people; this is the real deal, not a tourist attraction. The plays are well-acted, the theater is well-designed, and the set pieces are beautiful.

Get the translation tablet if you don't speak Japanese, it's essential for understanding the performance. You can share one between two people. Arrive early to get in line in time; the earlier you get in line, the better your chances are of getting a seat.

Amazing experience! English Translation service is available. I would recommend arriving earlier and not to enter any plans after the show because sometimes it might get longer than the actual schedule.

Didn't really see the appeal. It was very slow and had few actors. Maybe the act I watched wasn't the best. I had the English translator which worked fine, recommend it if you cannot speak Japanese.

I truly enjoyed the Kabuki experience. You can get tickets the day of, and as a non-Japanese speaker, the handheld audio devices are really nice. The seating is tight at the top of the auditorium, but it's tolerable. Plus, you can purchase different sessions, so you don't have to sit the entire day. I recommend it.

As a foreigner, I can say this is one of the most internationally accessable live shows. Period. They offer small tablets for rent that actually provide subtitles to the action. My tour guide recommended that we go and this was one of the few attraction he actually paid for a ticket to out of his own money and joined us. Well worth it. We entered through the walk-in line and saw a single act. If I ever return to Japan, I will be arriving to see an entire performance.
