Dance drama

Japanese: 舞踊劇 - ぶようげき
Dance drama
A drama in which a story unfolds based on dance. Not only Kabuki dance and ballet, but also folk and tribal dances from all over the world can be considered dance dramas, although the nuances may differ. In Kabuki dance, except for variations, all dances, such as "Kyokago Musume Dojoji", exist along with the progression of the story, and new dances since the Meiji period are characterized by a consistent story development. Ballet became a coherent drama due to the reforms of J. Nover in the 18th century, but the five-chapter reform plan of M. Fokine in the early 20th century further closely linked the dramatic and dance elements.

Japanese:
舞踊を基調として物語が展開する劇。歌舞伎舞踊,バレエだけでなく世界各地に伝わる民俗舞踊,民族舞踊には,それぞれニュアンスこそ違え舞踊劇といえるものがある。歌舞伎舞踊では変化物などを除き,『京鹿子娘道成寺』などはすべて物語の進行を伴って舞踊が存在し,また明治以後の新舞踊は一貫した物語の展開を特徴としている。バレエが首尾一貫したドラマから構成されるようになったのは,18世紀の J.ノベールの改革によるが,20世紀初頭 M.フォーキンの5章から成る改革案によって,さらに劇的な部分と舞踊的な部分が緊密に結びつくようになった。
