The official website of the upcoming kabuki adaptation of Hayao Miyazaki's "Princess Mononoke" has published a short promo video and photos featuring the three main actors in costume.
Starring: Danko Ichikawa, 22 years old, as Ashitaka, Kazutaro Nakamura, 35 years old, as San, and Tokizo Nakamura, 38 years old, as Lady Eboshi.
What is known about the production
This is a new work in the Super Kabuki line — a modern kabuki project that takes stories not from the classical repertoire, but from more familiar tales for the mass audience. The format was launched by Ennosuke Ichikawa III in 1986.
For Miyazaki, this is already the second kabuki adaptation: previously, "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" was staged in 2019 and 2022.
When will the performance be shown
The kabuki version of "Princess Mononoke" is being prepared for performance at Shinbashi Enbujo in Tokyo. Performances are scheduled from July 3 to August 23, 2026.
Ticket sales for the July performances will start on May 25, and for the August performances on June 25.
