* Noh is a classical Japanese dance-drama that originated in the fourteenth century.
* Kathakali is a classical Indian dance-drama that emerged in the seventeenth century.
* Noh actors represent character types, such as demons or deities, by wearing stylized wooden masks.
* Kathakali actors do not wear masks, instead relying on elaborate, color-coded face makeup to represent different character types.
* Noh performances are characterized by slow, highly minimalist movements and poetic gestures.
* Kathakali performances feature dynamic physical movements and complex hand gestures.
