Noh Classical Theater

Noh is classical theater for Japan. Since it is theater it has similar elements to western theater. It includes the stage, performers, props, and costumes but some defining elements are the chants, instruments, movements, and masks. It is stylized and refined with traditional values. Surprisingly the noh plays are standardized so there isn't much variations. In the video example there is only the chanting and drums for the play, usually there are flutes in the ensemble.
