Biography:

This actor held this name from November 1882 until his death in 1936.

Gennosuke IV was born in Osaka on the 14th day of the 3rd lunar month of 1859 and died on April 20, 1936.

"Sawamura Gennosuke IV was an outstanding onnagata actor, who was also able to play a wide range of male roles. Akuba roles were his field of excellence, like Otomi ("Kirare Otomi") or Dakki no Ohyaku ("Hyaku Monogatari"). He moved at the beginning of the 20th century from ōshibai, where he was supporting the stars Ichikawa Danjūrō IX and Onoe Kikugorō V, to koshibai, performing as a leading actor in venues like the Asakusaza or the Miyatoza. He joined back the ôshibai in his latter years. He was considered as the last true Edo onnagata."
