Dear Robert Kibler, I believe Aoi No Uye can be purchased from Marty Gross at the following e-mail address: <[log in to unmask]>. There are also a few videos that show excerpts of noh plays with commentaries in English: Noh Theatre (produced by Northwood Institute and the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Theatre Arts) Noh: The Classical Theatre of Japan (produced by the Department of Theatre, Michigan State University) The Tradition of Performing Arts in Japan: The Heart of Kabuki, Noh and Bunraku (produced by Shin-Ei, Inc.)
