Japanese Noh Theatre is a traditional form of drama that originated in Japan during the 14th century. It combines elements of music, dance, and poetry to tell stories, often based on historical events, folklore, or classical literature. Performers wear elaborate masks and costumes, and the performances are characterized by their slow, deliberate movements and minimalistic staging. Noh is typically performed on a wooden stage with a simple backdrop, emphasizing the beauty of the performers' movements and the poetic language. The art form is deeply rooted in Shinto and Buddhist traditions, reflecting themes of spirituality and the human experience.
