I'm not quite sure where this fits in, but when I was in college I was in a Kabuki production of the Greek myths of
Agamemnon, which I'm not sure I'd be able to find (I believe the adaptation was by Bryan J. DiPietro), but the comparisons were so striking I was surprised I hadn't noticed them before. Issues of familial duty, honor, betrayal play prominent parts in both styles (Greek Drama and Kabuki) and using one might be a great way to introduce the other.

It certainly helps explain the pageantry and melodrama of the mi'e, if you compare it to Clytemnestra beating her breast and wailing to the heavens.

just a thought,
