Bodukkan Center for Performing Arts

 is a location featured in the pen and paper RPG Cyberpunk 2020.

Overview
One of if not the most prestigious preforming arts centers on the West Coast. Funding for this was originally from Arasaka grants and matching funds donated from the considerable fortunes of Yakuza families of Night City. The Bodukkan features two full stages for plays or operas, and a larger main stage that is usually used to accommodate the Bodukkan Center's premiere attraction: the Nakagowa Kabuki Troupe.

As for the Nakagowa Kabuki Troupe, it's widely hailed as one of the greatest Kabuki performing troupes in the United States. Some of the members are so dedicated as to have been bio-sculpted to match their time honored and classical roles as ''Oni, princes, and princess. ''Some local kabuki troupes today use female actors in onnagata roles. The Ichikawa Shōjo Kabuki Gekidan, an all-female troupe, debuted in 1953 to significant acclaim but failed to start a new trend. These actors never appear to be out of character, and when they make public appearances they always appear in their famous roles. Throughout the years there has been discussion in the media to the effect that the Troupe is basically a professional posergang, but this has always been criticized by true Kabuki aficionados and the Japanese public.

When the Troupe is not performing, the large stage is used for first-run Japanese movies or Broadway plays from the East Coast when in town. The Bodukkan is world-famous for its posh luxury; Japanese visitors like to think of its as a little gem of culture set among the gaijin barbarians.
