About the Production
This year's collaboration once again brings together talented young artists from the Goblin Kurida troupe. The play features a delightful blend of comedy and human emotion, set against a backdrop of music and nostalgia.
The story follows Azuru Komura, an ordinary music college student in 2025, whose life takes an extraordinary turn when she encounters the ghosts of rockstars from the legendary band SLOW-FUTURE. These ghosts, having tragically passed during a music festival in the 1990s due to a lightning strike, are unable to rest until their unperformed song is played for the world to hear.
Azuru, who cherishes her mundane life, finds herself entangled in a quest to help these spirits fulfill their musical legacy. Joined by her friends Himeina and Jun, she dreams of attending an upcoming music festival featuring her favorite artists. However, her journey isn’t simple. To achieve her goal, she must persuade a skeptical member of her college's light music club, Saki Ichige, to collaborate on the performance of the long-lost track. The club is in dire straits, both in terms of members and reputation, having faced unfortunate incidents recently.
Just when Azuru thinks hope is lost, her serendipitous meeting with Saki leads to an unexpected alliance. Saki, a fan of SLOW-FUTURE, promises to showcase the ghost's song at the music festival, reigniting the flames of camaraderie and passion. Together, they embark on a treacherous yet heartwarming journey filled with musical enchantment, the struggles of youth, and the quest for dreams that transcend time.
