Don't be embarrassed if you don't know what a Kabuki dancer is. But you have no one to blame but yourself if you miss the question about the Kabuki people next time you play Trivial Pursuit. The exhibit which is being circulated across Ontario by the Royal Ontario Museum just arrived last week and has already attracted attracted dozens of visitors to the historic home. One of the most interesting interesting things about Kabuki theatre and Kabuki prints, aside from their lavish color is the fact that they have their roots in 17th century century Kyoto and are still popular today. Essentially, the dances served to reflect the contemporary contemporary Japenese life. It was a synthesis of many theatrical and dance traditions traditions including classical Noh, folk, religious, and puppet. Kabuki theatre scenes and actors later became ideal subjects for woodblock prints because Kabuki theatre was basically basically a very visual art which included stunning costumes, costumes, brilliant make-up, and innovative sets. Unlike Western plays which conclude with a climax, many Kabuki plays had a number of climaxes during which the actor was frozen for a moment in a standardized stance to show intense emotion. The Kabuki woodblock prints that are on display at the Museum were one of the most popular and inexpensive inexpensive art forms in Japan for several hundred years. Prints depicting these dancers were, and still are, appealing because" they are colourful and lively and evoke the boisterous spirit of the Japanese theatre. Originally woodblock prints were black on white paper, but soon they were being hand-colored or printed in one or two colors. The full color prints, made by applying ten or more colors, colors, were first produced in 1765. Today Japanese prints seldom resemble those of the earlier centuries but the Kaubki theatre has continued continued to be performed with little change. To get a taste of these special dancers and to learn more about the deep emotions which motivate their dance, take a trip to the Bowmanville Museum.
