    Extractions: The most traditional forms of Japanese performing arts including kabuki noh (theater) and dance are still being performed in Japan in much the same way as they have been for hundreds of years. Kabuki Kabuki is a form of traditional Japanese theatre which was developed and enjoyed by the middle and lower classes. The earliest evidence of kabuki dates back to 1603 when O-Kuni, a female servant at the Izumo Taisha Shrine in Kyoto arranged for a troupe of performers to put on a show in order to raise money for the repair of the shrine. Early kabuki featured both male and female performers who were often times geisha . During the Tokugawa period some of these performances became so immodest that female performers were banned from the stage and male actors took on the female roles (onna-gata). With the emergence of a strong merchant class in the Edo period, popular culture thrived and kabuki became more sophisticated and stylized. The

49. GameFAQs: Kabuki Warriors - Reader Review
    Grafx Holy living ****, you lazyass programmers. Some might call thisstyle artistic, fitting the style of japanese kabuki theatre.  
    http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox/review/R35976.html
    
    Extractions: Thank you very much for making Kabuki Warriors. Not only is it easily the worst game ever created, it also serves as a nice Frisbee. My dog has never been happier with your creation! It soars far further than other Frisbees and is small and easier to carry around. Please consider lowering the price, as most Frisbees retail for less than fifty dollars. Never in my life have I ever seen such garbage released for a system. There have been many craptacular games (hell almost the Atari 2600 library sucks rocks) that have come and gone, but only Kabuki Warriors truly shows just how fucking poor a game can really be. I mean it has nothing to do with Kabuki theatre (I mean where is the stinking dancing?), the grafx look like something I crapped out of my ass, the music is simply missing, presumed dead, and the control was designed by pinkie, the one fingered man. I spit at this game. I spit on it. SPIT ON IT!

    Extractions: Kabuki Pack Bags Dream role: Za Kabuki's Jeremy Shaw (left) and Janelle Mahoney (right) pack for their trip to Japan. John Tucker After 23 successful shows the ANU's Japan Centre theatre group, Za Kabuki, has decided to take its latest production, "The Love Suicides at Amijima" on the road - but not in Australia. The group is headed to the birthplace of Japanese culture and Canberra's sister city, Nara. With assistance from the ANU, the ACT Government and Nara City, 26 members of the traditional Japanese theatre group will leave Australia next week to spend seven days on a cultural exchange with one-off performances in both Nara and nearby Kobe. Now some may liken a bunch of foreigners performing kabuki for a Japanese audience to selling ice to Eskimos but, as Za Kabuki's producer and third-year Arts/Asian Studies student Suzy Styles explains, it is all about the space between the two cultures. "When people talk about our kabuki I think one of the most poignant things that anyone has ever said was that it's a fascinating cultural appropriation," Ms Styles said.
