Article Draft Japan Section[edit]
[copied from Performing arts]
I only added two citations to back up the unsourced material.
During the 14th century, there were small companies of actors in Japan who performed short, sometimes vulgar comedies. A director of one of these companies, Kan'ami (1333–1384), had a son, Zeami Motokiyo (1363–1443), who was considered one of the finest child actors in Japan. When Kan'ami's company performed for Ashikaga Yoshimitsu (1358–1408), the shōgun of Japan, he implored Zeami to have a court education for his arts.[1] After Zeami succeeded his father, he continued to perform and adapt his style into what is today Noh. A mixture of pantomime and vocal acrobatics, the Noh style of theatre has become one of Japan's most refined forms of theatrical performance.[2]

Iran[edit]
In Iran there are other forms of theatrical events such as Naghali or Naqqāli (story telling), ٰRu-Howzi, Siah-Bazi, Parde-Khani, and Mareke giri. Prior to the twentieth century, storytelling was the most recognized form of entertainment, although today, some forms still remain. One form, Naghali, was traditionally performed in coffeehouses where the storytellers, or Naghals (Naqqāls), only recited sections of a story at a time, thus retaining regular cliental. These stories were based on events of historical or religious importance and many referenced poetry from the Shahnameh. Oftentimes these stories were altered to bond with the atmosphere or mood of the audience.[3]
History of Performing Arts in Oceania Draft[edit]
Melanesian dance often displays its cultural theme of masculinity of which leadership and unique skills are important for the community.[4] These dances can demonstrate the soldiery of a man, however, they can also represent profitability such as encouraging conflict resolutions or healing.[5] The costumes of impersonating dancers include large masks and unhuman-like characteristics that impersonate mythical figures. The music can be meant to act as a voice for these magical personas.[4]
