Zen Kajiwara
Zen Kajiwara (梶原 善 Kajihara Zen), born 25 February 1966 in Okayama, Japan, is a Japanese theatre actor.[1] Originally a member of the Tokyo Sunshine Boys theatrical troupe,[2] he now works mainly with the Gekidan Shinkansen troupe.
He is known for being very short in stature, but very noisy and wild on stage, specializing in comedy. He had a problem reading kanji (Chinese characters) and insists that his roles have long, complicated, difficult-to-remember names.
