Item ගැමි නාට්යයෙන් පෝෂණය වූ ජපන් නෝ නාට්ය කලාව සහ ශ්රී ලාංකේය නාට්ය කලාව පිළිබඳ තුලනාත්මක විග්රහයක්(Faculty of Humanities, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2016) Liyanage, L.P.The great tradition of drama was influenced by folk drama. In this regard, Japanese folk dramas such as “Kagura”, “Gigaku” and “Bugaku” influenced the “Noh” drama style. Similarly, Sinhala dramas were inspired by Sinhalese folk dramas such as “Sokari”, “Kolam” and “Nadagam”. Both the Japanese and Sinhalese folk dramas were instrumental in developing a standard acting style, stage techniques, colour meaning and plot construction. This paper examines the development of the Japanese “Noh” drama tradition and the Sri Lankan dramas based on the influence of their respective folk drama traditions.
