    Extractions: The most traditional forms of Japanese performing arts including kabuki noh (theater), bunraku and dance are still being performed in Japan in much the same way as they have been for hundreds of years.. Kabuki Kabuki is a form of traditional Japanese theatre which was developed and enjoyed by the middle and lower classes. The earliest evidence of kabuki dates back to 1603 when O-Kuni, a female servant at the Izumo Taisha Shrine in Kyoto arranged for a troupe of performers to put on a show in order to raise money for the repair of the shrine. Early kabuki featured both male and female performers who were often times geisha . During the Tokugawa period some of these performances became so immodest that female performers were banned from the stage and male actors took on the female roles (onna-gata). With the emergence of a strong merchant class in the Edo period, popular culture thrived and kabuki became more sophisticated and stylized. The

Traditional Japanese Theatre Studies (Ningyo-Jyoruri and Bunraku) Traditional Japanese Theatre Studies (Kabuki and Japanese Dance) The Studies of Cultural Environment for Theatre Course Overview This programme aims to establish groundbreaking academic disciplines in the study of traditional Japanese theatre arts, namely, Noh and Kyogen, Ningyo-Jyoruri, Kabuki and Japanese dancing (Nihon-buyo), combining studies on form, style and technique practiced for (actual) performance with those on the literary analysis of texts. In this programme, we aim to undertake such research activities as the revival of historically famous masterpieces, the restoration of performance techniques that are no longer practiced, and the stage production of rarely performed works, in collaboration with artists possessing their own traditional expertise. To achieve this, analytical studies of texts and their variants will be conducted to create a coherent foundation for future research activities; performance media and techniques will also be analysed based on available film and sound source materials.

Japanese Theatre in the 21st Century began with an international symposium held at the University of Edinburgh and Royal Museum of Scotland from 2nd to 6th July, 2001 . This event brought together performers, scholars, and members of the local community concerned with Japanese theatre, with the following aims: to build on existing links between academics and performers in Japanese theatre to foster an international network in the field to disseminate knowledge about Japanese culture in the broader community Its programme combined workshops and performances by actors, dancers and musicians involved in or influenced by Japanese theatre with academic lectures and presentations by scholars from an international field. Presentations and performances focussed on traditional and modern genres and contemporary approaches to understanding them intellectually, expressing them on stage and appreciating them from the audience viewpoint. Following on from the symposium, and to further its original aims, this website is being maintained as a point of contact and source of information on Japanese theatre.

Kabuki originated in the Edo period and was more popular with the lower social class as compared to the higher social classes. The word 'Kabuki' is composed of three Japanese characters: 'ka' meaning 'songs', 'bu' meaning 'dance' and 'ki' meaning 'skill'. Its more likely a Japanese version of Shakespeare’s plays being performed in an Opera. But Kabuki is more entertaining, energetic and awesome in the use of color, makeup, movements and often other spectacular effects. The passion for Kabuki Theatre began with first performance by the shrine dancer Okuni at Kyoto in 1603. This performance was a unique blend of folk dance and religious dance and soon became popular with the lower classes. In the early phase of the 17
