Why I often attend Takarazuka Kagekidan.

I got really into Takarazuka　Kagekidan since 2012.

Today I talk to you about why I often attend that theater.




Takarazuka is Hyougo’s theater company that there are only woman actresses since 1914.

I grew up in Hyogo. 

Of course I’ve watched Takarazuka already, when I was junior hight school student.

But I wasn’t that big on it. Because I couldn’t understand about story.

The story is about the first president of Mitsubishi in Meiji era.

Then I didn’t watch Takarazuka for 10 years .




In 2012, I heard that Takarazuka make a new musical based on a novel.

It’s my favorite novel series!

The title is Legend of Galactic Heroes. science fiction novel 30 years ago.

I didn’t believe that first time.

But I thought I must get a ticket when I found the poster in the city. It was very nice poster.

First, I didn’t find any ticket in store that time.

Finally, I could buy in internet auction. It was little expencive.

First time , I was late on theater. I missed few minutes.

But it was really fantastic time. Story was interesting, Song was good , Actresses were very cool, and the stage setting was nice!

I thought I’d better watch it again. 　

After few days I went in the line for today’s ticket with my friends in arley morning.

While we were waiting , we were talking a lot. 

Then, one of my friend told me she has already watched it in Hyogo.

(So, we watched it in Tokyo.  First shows were in Hyogo about 1 month ago. ) 

she watched many time over.

And she said I will introduce someone who is Takarazuka fan club member to you.




That fan club member could get tickets easy .

She send a e-mail to me. What would you rather get a ticket tea party or theater?

The tea party is actress’s fan meeting.　

I reply to her ,I’d like to go the tea party.  But by the time there weren’t any table already .

she gave a theater’s ticket to me instead.

 

And I watched it again. I was surprised at the action was getting better.

I developed an interest in actreses .

In theater’s souvenir shop, there are some books about Takarazuka.

I could read the actresses’s interviews. How she make the role herself and what dose she think about the title.

I was attracted to her character. 

I was keeping in touch with fan club member. I watched same title many and many a time. There were 30 times !

 

When I realized, I become a fan of Takarazuka.
 Hahaha XD

Now I watch the Takarazuka once a month.

Takarazuka is part of my life like get a hair cut.

 

Thank you.
