Learning to Kneellocates noh drama's influence on American and European writers, dancers, and composers. Carrie J. Preston's work has been profoundly shaped by her training in noh performance. While her subjects are often criticized for Orientalist tendencies, Preston's own journey reflects a more nuanced understanding of cultural exchange.
