TOKYO: Ten-year-old Maholo Terajima Ghnassia loves watching anime and playing baseball. He likes making beats and whisper ASMR. And he's breaking conventions in Japan's 420-year-old Kabuki theater tradition.
In Kabuki, all the roles are played by men, including beautiful princesses — a role Maholo accomplishes stunningly in his official stage debut as Maholo Onoe at the Kabuki Theater in downtown Tokyo. In the performance, which ran May 2 through 27 to full audiences, he starts out disguised as a woman, dancing gracefully, before transforming into sword-wielding warrior Iwami Jutaro.
If tomorrow is not better than today, then the day after tomorrow will be better than tomorrow.'Maholo himself isn't sure yet if he will stick with the strict, demanding artform and someday adopt his grandfather's stage name, Kikugoro — a prized name in Kabuki passed down through generations of Onoe men.Maholo Onoe during an interview at the Kabuki Theater in Tokyo on May 18, 2023.
