As Tsukitei Hosei

Musubi-mitsu-gashiwa is a fixed crest of Katsura Beichou family, but Tsukitei family uses a moon crest as a change crest.
He met rakugo just before I turned 40.
The first rakugo story I heard in my life was Shijaku Katsura’s “Takatsu no Tomi.” According to him, he woke up to rakugo as if there was such an interesting performing art in Japan.
After that, Homasa began to think “I want to try it, not just listen to it”, and started studying rakugo in earnest and started studying Rakugo.
This is because he applied for an introduction to Happo through Tsukitei Hachimitsu. He made his debut as a guest performer at the Rakugo party in Tsukitei Happo on May 11, 2008, and was officially named “Tsukitei Hosei” by Happo at the launch.
From January 1, 2013, the stage name will be unified to “Tsukitei Hosei” including during talent activities.
In January 2017, an overseas performance was held in Sydney, and it became a big topic with such a great success that additional seats appeared on the day.
May 11, 2018 Namba Grand Kagetsu 10th Anniversary Rakugo Party.
A solo performance at Namba Grand Kagetsu, the first comedy sanctuary.
Published a book “Rakugo is wonderful” on the day.
Special envoy for public relations in Tsubata Town, Ishikawa Prefecture. Including a temporary lecturer at Tokyo University of Science, he also holds lectures. Nowadays, the sincere narrative that dispels the image of variety shows and the polite rakugo have become popular, and “the most interesting rakugo storyteller I have ever seen”, “the narrative is wonderful, and it is easy for beginners to enter”.
There are many praises such as “very good”.
While sprinkling the “essence of laughter” that has been cultivated as an entertainer by turning from a comedian to a rakugo path, we are fully delivering the refined world of classical rakugo to everyone in Japan.
