Paper Summary:

This paper will discuss the training of actors in the Japanese traditional theatres of Noh and Kabuki. It will be argued that the acting conventions of both schools differ in terms of the different requirements of each form; with the more formalized Noh theatre demanding skill in dance, while the action and spectacle of the Kabuki requires physical training and the ability to project expressions with faces rather than masks.
