Summary
This workshop presents a project about Iwami Kagura and tourism in Yunotsu Onsen, Shimane. It looks into the role that Kagura can play as a facilitator for tourism. In order to establish this role, the project looks at the meaning of Kagura and tourism for the residents of Yunotsu Onsen and if they support kagura for tourism development. It also includes the views of those who practise and perform. To gain a deeper understanding of tourists motivation to watch and perception of Kagura, findings from two sites – Hiroshima City and Yunotsu Onsen – are being presented. Both places host weekly Kagura performances and since access and viewer profiles differ, part of the Hiroshima findings also inform viewers preferences about experiencing Kagura in more traditional settings like shrines. To present the workshop attendees a more personal insight into Kagura and tourism at Yunotsu Onsen, Yuka Nishida, presents her view on these issues and tells the story from a Kagura performer who runs a restaurant in Yunotsu Onsen.
