[Toshima Future Culture Foundation, Public Interest Incorporated Foundation] Bunko’s Rakugo 2026 Winter Battle! “Ryutei Kochiraku x Sakamoto Yorimitsu Duo Performance”

Toshima Future Culture Foundation, Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Press release: October 16, 2025 To Members of the Press Bukuro’s Rakugo 2026 Winter Campaign! “Ryutei Kochiraku x Sakamoto Yorimitsu Duo Performance” These are some of the most talented performers in the entertainment world. Their first-ever duo
performance is finally here! Toshima Future Culture Foundation (Location: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; Chairman: Naoto Aiba) will be hosting the Rakugo 2026 Winter Battle at Bunko! “Ryutei Kochiraku x Sakamoto Yorimitsu Duo Performance.” This series, titled “Rakugo in Ikebukuro,” will feature storytelling performances by performers active in yose and rakugo troupes, with the theme of “Getting to know the current state of the entertainment world in Ikebukuro.” By attracting many visitors, not only Toshima residents but also those from outside the ward, we hope to contribute to enhancing Toshima’s appeal as a “city where you can listen to storytelling.” The first episode, a memorable one, will feature a collaboration between rakugo and benshi. This will be the first ever performance by a duo featuring rakugo performer Yanagiya Kochiraku, who is active not only in the rakugo community but also in the media, and benshi Sakamoto Yorimitsu, who won the New Artist Award in the Popular Entertainment category of the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s Art Encouragement Prize last year. Please enjoy the chemistry created by these two leading figures in the entertainment world. Toshima Future Culture Foundation Home Page
