zaju
''Zaju'' () (literally meaning "variety show"〔Crump 1990, 179.〕) was a form of Chinese drama or Chinese opera which provided entertainment through a synthesis of recitations of prose and poetry, dance, singing, and mime, with a certain emphasis on comedy (or, happy endings). ''Zaju'' is a genre of dramas that had its origins in the Song Dynasty.〔.〕 It has particularly been associated with the time of the Yuan Dynasty, and remains important in terms of the historical study of the theater arts as well as Classical Chinese literature and poetry.
==Characteristics==
The Yuan ''zaju'' were poetic music dramas comprising four acts, with the "act" defined as a set of songs following and completing a certain musical modal progression. Occasionally one or two "wedges," or short interludes in the form of an aria performed by another character might be added to either support or enhance the plot. Within the acts, lyrics were written to accompany existing tunes or set-rhythmic patterns; and, the major singing roles were restricted to one star per act.〔Crump 1990, 182-183.〕 The zaju featured particular specialized roles for performers, such as ''Dan'' (旦, dàn, female), ''Sheng'' (生, shēng, male), ''Hua'' (花, huā, painted-face) and ''Chou'' (丑, chŏu, clown).
