Kabuki Theater

Kabuki style is an art form of Eastern Asian Culture that helped the people of the time to express themselves in the art of acting, singing and playing music. Using the source of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabuki, I was able to find the purpose of the Kabuki style of theater. This style of theater is a lot like what I thought it would be. It uses a lot of music and therefore what I expected. This stated that its something that held a lot to the originality of the musicians of China and Japan. It involved a lot of the sameness of musical theater yet it was different in its own way. It stands in the same realm of the olden Globe theater of Shakespeare and the Roman era domes. it’s a from appropriating itself from the Japanese style kimonos and wardrobe forms also coming from the Samurai explaining the myths and legends of all that came to and from the Eastern Asian culture. I would love to go and see this style of theater because of the clashing of musical tastes. It would also be fun to watch the wardrobes and the way an actor can express himself by movement. As a singer, actor, dancer and musician myself, it would be an utterly great experience.
