One Piece is being produced as a Kabuki play.
kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theater that combines drama, dance and elaborate costumes...the play’s story will be from the rescue of Ace from Impel Down, up until the great war that led up to his execution. It should also be noted that all actors in kabuki are male, which is going to make certain parts of “One Piece” harder to reenact.
