Asagi curtain - Asagimaku
A type of curtain used in Kabuki plays. It is light blue, or asagi, and represents the outdoors during the day. Usually, at the beginning of a performance, this curtain is stretched behind the curtain and then cut and lowered at the appropriate time using a bamboo stopper hung from the ceiling, allowing the audience to instantly see the stage set and the actors.

Japanese:
歌舞伎劇で使われる幕の一種。日中の戸外を表現するもので浅葱すなわち水色の幕。ふつう開幕の際,引幕の後ろにこの幕を張り,天井からつった竹の栓(せん)の仕掛で適当な時機に切って落とし,舞台装置や俳優の姿を一瞬のうちに観客の目に映す効果をあげる。
