Introduction
The world of theater is abuzz with excitement as the revival of Watase Seizou's renowned masterpiece, titled
‘Sai’, is set to celebrate its re-release through an enchanting musical performance known as
‘Saijiki’. This performance, organized by
Light Link Music, is scheduled for
September 30, 2025 at the
Sumida Triphony Hall, specifically in the small hall located at
1-2-3 Kinshi, Sumida-Ku, Tokyo. Tickets are currently available through
Confetti, managed by
Long Run Planning Co., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Performance Details
The production of
‘Saijiki’ is an homage to Seizou's book, with a focus on the themes of family, love, loss, and rebirth set against the backdrop of the picturesque seasons of Kamakura. The lead role will be portrayed by
Ruruko Minagawa, who is expressing her heartfelt desire to celebrate the book's release through this musical adaptation. This iteration retains much of the original script created for the last performance in the
Mitsukoshi Theater in 2022, but it promises an even richer expression of its themes and emotions.
The Unique Experience
Audiences can anticipate a visually stunning performance thanks to the elegant presentation of antique kimonos. The integration of
