I like this website as a resource because it talks about both the history of Kabuki theater and some important people involved in the theater. It also talks a little about the Kabuki stage. I think it is fascinating that the stage is able to rotate. I wonder what it would feel like to perform on a stage that could do that? I think this website would be helpful to anyone who wanted a basic history of Kabuki theater with some extra facts.
I had not heard of Kabuki theater until this year in the theater program so I had never had my own perception of what it might be. I do think I would have liked to attend Kabuki in ancient Japan. The stories seem to be romantic, the costumes are very colorful and dramatic, and the stage sounds amazing with the backdrops and trapdoors. Kabuki theater sounds like a very interesting form of theater.
