<human>:  What is the difference between Kabuki and Noh theatre?
<bot>: Kabuki is a style of classic Japanese theatre that is known for its elaborate costumes, highly stylized performances, extravagant makeup, and dramatic use of music and sound. Noh theatre is a form of classical Japanese music-dance drama that has been continuously performed since the 14th century. Noh is unique in how actors use highly-stylized and codified gestures, masks, and other props to portray emotions and tell stories. Kabuki performances tend to be more fast-paced and focus heavily on the physical aspects of the performance, whereas Noh slows the performance down for greater contemplation of the stories and characters.
