Kagekiyo is a Noh play by Zeami, centering on the Taira clan samurai Taira no Kagekiyo.
The story takes place after the end of the Genpei War; Kagekiyo has been exiled from the capital for his participation in the war opposing the Minamoto clan. His daughter now comes around looking for him, and finds him living as a blind beggar in the countryside.
