Answer:

Like the three kanji characters that make up the word, kabuki consists of ka (singing), bu (dancing) and ki (skill). In addition to these three components, kabuki is characterized by unique stage sets such as a revolving platform that allows for nearly instant set changes and a runway that stretches into the audience.
