'Kazakoshi' is the mountain wind which flows across the mountaintop Mt. Fuetsu, bringing a billowing mist onto the Inadani valley from which we gather our strength and determination to share throughout the world.

How can one tiny flap of sponge and sinew be all these things? Richard Herring intends to find out in this tenth anniversary update of the critically acclaimed show that exposes the truth about men and their flutes of love. Sell-out at the Edinburgh Fringe 2002 and Melbourne Comedy Festival 2003,...
