Noh drama typically includes elements such as elaborate masks, poetic language, and a focus on themes of spirituality and the supernatural. However, modern elements like spoken dialogue or contemporary settings are not part of traditional Noh. Additionally, the use of elaborate stage effects and rapid action, as seen in other theatrical forms, is also not characteristic of Noh drama.
Noh theatre originated in Japan during the 14th century, with its formal development attributed to the playwright Zeami Motokiyo. It evolved from earlier forms of theatrical performance and became recognized as a distinct art form in the Muromachi period (1336-1573). Noh is characterized by its slow, stylized movements, elaborate costumes, and the use of masks to convey emotions.
There are several types of Japanese masks used in traditional ceremonies and performances, including Noh masks, Kyogen masks, and Kagura masks. Noh masks are used in Noh theater to represent various characters, emotions, and spirits. Kyogen masks are used in comedic plays to portray exaggerated facial expressions. Kagura masks are used in Shinto rituals and performances to represent deities and mythical creatures. Each type of mask has its own unique design and significance in Japanese culture.

You're probably thinking either of "Noh" (能), or "Kabuki" (歌舞伎) which incorporates dancing and the actors wear face-paint instead of masks (as in Noh). There's also "Bunraku" (文楽), which is puppet theatre.

Japanese masks are traditionally made from various materials, including wood, papier-mâché, and ceramic. Wood is often used for masks like Noh and Kabuki, crafted from lightweight woods for ease of wear. Papier-mâché is common for festival masks, allowing for intricate designs and vibrant colors. Additionally, some contemporary masks may incorporate synthetic materials for durability and versatility.
The eye slit in traditional Japanese Noh masks serves a symbolic purpose, allowing the wearer to convey emotions and expressions through subtle movements of the eyes. This feature enhances the performance and storytelling aspect of Noh theater, as the audience can interpret the character's feelings and intentions based on the actor's eye movements.

Exactly when the noh mask came into being is not entirely clear however it is believed that masks, and their names still used today, were developed from the mid to latter part of the Muromachi period (1392-1573). Previous to that time, the mask conventions were not entirely set and masks themselves had stronger religious connotations. It was during the Muromachi period that the religious significance of the masks began to wane and they took on more human characteristics. It is thought that as performers started to think more about the use of yūgen (mysterious beauty) and profundity, they felt they needed to hide the unattractive aspects of their own faces and concentrate on making the beauty of noh stronger.Between the end of the Muromachi period and the modern age the art of making noh masks was established as a hereditary art with a long lineage. Two examples are the Deme family from Echizen (present day Fukui prefecture) and the Iseki family from Ohmi (present day Shiga prefecture). Following the establishment of noh mask making families, the stylization of noh masks significantly advanced. Even today there are many independent mask makers. While some nohgaku performers still make their own masks, the performance world and the mask-making world are essentially independent of each other.
