A major style of Japanese dance-drama, 'Noh' is the oldest surviving theatre form in the world, boasting a history of over 700 years. Noh plays are often based on tales from traditional literature, featuring a supernatural being transformed into a human hero that narrates the story. The literary form integrates masks, costumes and various props in a dance-based performance, requiring highly trained actors and musicians. Noh remains popular today in Japan, where there are almost one hundred Noh theatres, attended by hundreds whenever a performance takes place. Delphi's Eastern Treasures Series provides eReaders with rare and precious texts of Asian literature, featuring prominent works of history, fiction, religion, poetry and philosophy. This eBook presents a wide selection of classic Noh plays, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
