Earle Ernst was assigned oversight of censoring Japanese plays at the time of the American Occupation, which allowed him to learn about and come to appreciate kabuki. As a result of his experiences he directed kabuki at the University of Hawai‘i and became the founding director of the university’s Asian Theatre Program.
