Kabuki Compilation

From Wikipedia:
The history of theatre charts the development of theatre over the past 2,500 years. While performative elements are present in every society, it is customary to acknowledge a distinction between theatre as an art form and entertainment and theatrical or performative elements in other activities. The history of theatre is primarily concerned with the origin and subsequent development of the theatre as an autonomous activity. Since classical Athens in the 6th century BCE, vibrant traditions of theatre have flourished in cultures across the world.

Theater probably arose as a performance of ritual activities that did not require initiation on the part of the spectator. This similarity of early theater to ritual is negatively attested by Aristotle, who in his Poetics defined theater in contrast to the performances of sacred mysteries: theater did not require the spectator to fast, drink the kykeon, or march in a procession; however theater did resemble the sacred mysteries in the sense that it brought purification and healing to the spectator by means of a vision, the theama. The physical location of such performances was accordingly named theatron.
