Appearance

Torioi (鳥追, Bird-scaring) or Torioi-bune (鳥追舟, The Bird-scaring Boat) is a Noh play of the fourth category, probably from the 16th century,[1] and possibly by Kongō Yagorō.[2]
Theme
[edit]An absentee husband and father sets in motion a chain of events whereby the steward left in charge of the family estate gradually exerts power over the mother and her son, Hanawaka.[3]
Eventually the pair are forced into the demeaning activity of bird-scaring from a boat among the ricefields.[4]
