about Kyogen
Kyogen is a classical form of comedy, with its origins in the 14th
century, which has kept the same form since the early 16th century. Having
the same history as Kyogen and played on the stage, Noh is
musical drama with dancing like opera or musicals, whereas Kyogen is
a drama with dialogue and realistic acting. In this sense Kyogen can
be described as the prototype of modern plays. With no stage props,
Kyogen depends solely on action for all types of expression
including changes of scenery and time, influencing modern drama despite its
tradition of 600 years.
