Shinnosuke Ikehata
Shinnosuke Ikehata (池畑 慎之介 Ikehata Shinnosuke) (born August 8, 1952, in Sakai, Osaka, Japan) is a Japanese singer, dancer, and actor who has appeared in Akira Kurosawa's Ran and Toshio Matsumoto's Funeral Parade of Roses. Ikehata also uses their stage name of Peter (ピーター Pītā) when they appeared on TV variety shows and musical revues. Always seen dancing with tight shirts and pants at dancing clubs, they adopted the stage name when they were 16 after their style of dress and dance which was said to resemble Peter Pan. One of Japan's most famous gay entertainers, Peter's androgynous appearance has enabled them to often play transgender or female characters and they often appear on stage in women's clothing.
