The KABUKI
. . . Influenced by Tokugawa Rule
By M. SITARR
']|1^T^ NISEIS HAVE now heard of the Kabuki,
and those who have seen the Azuma troupe
thought^ they, were seeing the genuine profes­
sional Kabuki actors, but this is not true. They
were not professional Kabuki actors although
they were highly- proficient dancers. The Azuma
tioupe’s expression differed from that of the
Kabuki, and the group contained women, which
is a contradiction in terms. It is therefore not
too difficult to understand the resentment felt
towards the Azuma troupe in Japan because
they- used the word “Kabuki” to describe them­
selves.
In order to understand the Kabuki it is neces­
sary- to go into the historical background from
which it emerged. It developed as a theatre of
the commoners and according to tradition it
began with the performance by- an ex-priestess
Okuni in 1590 in the city of Kyoto. Historically,
Japan had been torn with civil wars for hundreds
of years, but peace came with the overthrow of
the Tokugawa line in 1807. It was during this
peaceful period of the Tokugawa line that the
Kabuki developed.
The way in which it developed can only- be
understood by- examining the political philosophy
°^ . the Tokugawa government. The Tokugawa
philosophy was to maintain the status quo of
the early 10th century. It tried to prevent any
changes in morals, wealth or manners, by- every
means the rulers could think of. Some of these
techniques were thought control, secret police
and propaganda. Preservation of a social hierar­
chy in which the warrior class was the top and
the commoners, such as the artisans and mer­
chants, were at the bottom was their aim. But
commoners, the merchants especially, eventually
began to acquire wealth and greater economic
strength than the warrior class.
This threatened the social hierarchy and the
Tokugawa government felt it necessary- to re­
move and crush this threat. The commoners
kept under the watchful eyes of the government and ex-cry- aspect of their lives, including
their amusements, was carefully regulated. And
so it happened that the Kabuki, the commoners’
chief means of entertainment, became the object
of suspicion.
The warrior class, too, had its own theatre
called the Noh, It was a very- static, austere,
formal traditional theatre. The Tokugawa gov­
ernment’s policy- of trying to maintain eternal
sameness was threatened by- the immediate
popularity of the Kabuki theatre, since, at that
time, the word “kabuki” carried the connotation
of doing what is odd and

entire Tokugawa period the principal moralitywas the strict adherence to tradition.
The government became very disturbed when
it found members of the warrior class sitting in
the same audience as the commoners watching
the Kabuki theatre. This was an immoral doing,
a threat to the carefully- maintained social struc­
ture. Therefore; in 1629 the first - major effort
to destroy- the'Kabuki wits made when the gov­
ernment forbade women from appearing on the
Kabuki stare.
As th
restrictive measures continued, the
women’s Kabuki was succeeded bv the young
men’s Kabuki. The roles of women went taken

However.
government found this
equally immoral and this form of Kabuki was
banned in 1652. And it was then that the “male”
Kabuki emerged, with greater emphasis placed
upon acting ability- than upon physical beauty.
Contemporary- theatre is based upon this form
of Kabuki.
The government restrictions were endless in
their effort to control and stamp out the Kabuki.
The government controlled the length of the
actors’ hair, the nature of their clothing and
also the places where the actors could live. The
main effort was to prevent contact of the actors
with the outside world. In spite of the constrictive
and restrictive measures the Kabuki managed to
survive and even made a virtue out of necessity.
It created, for example, such highly-developed
techniques for men to play- women’s roles that
it is now impossible to conceive of a woman
performing on the Kabuki stage.
Like the. Elizabethan theatre, the Kabuki would
no doubt have shown great curiosity- about the
world beyond, but under the Tokugawa policythis .was not possible. In 1637 the Japanese were
forbidden to leave the country- and the only- out­
siders were a few traders allowed into the
country.
This isolation plus the many years of peace
allowed Japanese art and the Kabuki to develop
unique techniques of expression, undisturbed by
rapidly- changing conditions of the outside world
or by .the political changes within. The result of
all tnis had the effect of increasing’ uniformity
in all classes, and of eventually formulating an
esthetic vocabulary- which had the same meaning
throughout the country. And it was this vocab­
ulary that the Kabuki also spoke.

last week’s weather in the
Queen City which caused postponement of last Saturday’s
Burke-Pastor Honor Nite pro­

special event will be held, to­

game tied the two clubs for
third . . . They’ll meet in a
doubleheader tomorrow to de­
