''Kurokawa'' is a one-act [[Noh]] play by [[Konparu Zenpo|Konparu Zenpô]], taking place at [[Kurokawa castle]] in [[Aizu]].
''Kurokawa'' is a one-act [[Noh]] play by [[Konparu Zenpo|Konparu Zenpô]], taking place at [[Kurokawa castle]] in [[Aizu]]. It is one of Zenpô's five ''muchû'' ("dream") plays, which also include ''[[Hatsuyuki]]'', ''[[Ikuta Atsumori]]'', and two others unknown today.<ref>Lim, 48.</ref>
The play is said to have been inspired by the Aizu-based ''[[renga]]'' master Kanenori, and is said to represent an increasing attention paid to the provinces in the Kyoto-based Noh artform during Zenpô's time (late 15th - early 16th c.). The play is also a strong example of the emphasis on spectacle and ''miseba'' ("showcase scenes") in the ''[[furyu Noh|fûryû Noh]]'' of that time.
