Download or read book Kabuki Plays on Stage Volume 2 written by James R. Brandon and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2002-05-31 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabuki Plays On Stage represents a monumental achievement in Japanese theatre studies, being the first collection of kabuki play translations to be published in twenty-five years. Fifty-one plays, published in four volumes, vividly trace kabuki's changing relations to Japanese society during the premodern era. Volume 1 consists of thirteen plays that showcase early kabuki's scintillating and boisterous styles of performance and illustrates the contrasting dramatic techniques cultivated by actors in Edo (Tokyo) and Kamigata (Osaka and Kyoto). The twelve plays translated in Volume 2 cover a brief period, but one that saw important developments in kabuki architecture, acting, dance, and the manipulation of characters and themes. As the series title indicates, the plays were translated to capture the vivacity of performances on stage. The translations, each accompanied by a thorough introduction that contextualizes the play, are based not only on published texts, but performance scripts and the study of the plays as they are performed in theatres today. Each volume is lavishly illustrated with rare woodblock prints in full color of Tokugawa- and Meiji-period productions as well as color and black-and-white photographs of contemporary performances.
Download or read book Masterpieces of Kabuki written by James R. Brandon and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2004-05-31 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterpieces of Kabuki contains eighteen outstanding dramas taken from the landmark four-volume series Kabuki Plays On Stage. Together they cover the entire spectrum of kabuki drama from 1697 to 1905, the period during which kabuki’s dramaturgy flourished prior to the onset of Western dramatic influence. Major playwrights, chronological periods of playwriting, and a variety of play types (history, domestic, and dance dramas) and performance styles are represented. All but one are in the current repertory and regularly staged. The volume includes introductions to each play and a new general introduction highlighting kabuki’s historical development and relating the plays to their performance context. As the subtitle implies, the plays are translated as if "on stage." Stage directions indicate major scenic effects, stage action, costuming, makeup, music, and sound effects. In some cases, complex stage actions such as stage fights are given in detail. The plays collected here are all marvelous examples of dramatic writing, intended to be acted on the stage before audiences. They reveal kabuki’s eras of brilliance and bravado, villainy and vengeance, darkness and desire, and restoration and reform. All continue to stir audiences to admiration and excitement.

As ambassador for the Aunt who raised her, Roberta must cajole her handsome cousin to return to Texas. But her cousin Chad is busily fighting the storm of his fortieth birthday, and Roberta is quickly drawn into a Parisian summer of unimaginable adventure, causing her to question the very foundations of her life. Can Roberta stay true to her mission? Or will Paris tear Robertas world apart as an earlier tornado did her Great Grandmothers? Will Roberta choose the blue-sky plains of West Texas over the emotional maelstrom of Paris and a cosmopolitan stage set of characters, each of whom teaches her something new about herself? With her sidekick Loreen K. Albrighton, Robertas long-time nemesis, Aunt Helen a tornado in her own right has a few tricks up her sleeve; she is not to be underestimated. For Aunt Helen, failure is not an option. "Kabuki in a G-String" is at the same time a comedy of manners and a sharp commentary on contemporary Americas culture wars. With characters of differing nationality, background, and religious orientation, the novel offers a humorously serious look at urban modernitys inevitable clash with conservatism and tradition.
