 Elsewhere, the kabuki theater tradition in Japan employs ritualized representations of violence on the stage.While kabuki is technically theater and not dance, the movements, for example, of the sword-fighting termed "tachimawari" in kabuki are gymnastic to the point even of employing somersaults, and elaborate fight scenes are so deliberate and stylized that they provide at least an area of overlap between theater and dance.Also, the Communist revolution in China produced the view that art—including dance—must support the “armed struggle of the proletariat.” By the 1970s, weapons commonly appeared in such works as "Red Detachment of Women,’’ a ballet about a women’s revolutionary armed force in the 1930s in China.
