~ TAKARASIENNE STAR Spotlight ~
 
Click to meet the current Takarazuka Revue top stars plus my personal favorites. Each page contains an offstage photo and a stage photo.... sometimes there's a big contrast from one to the other! Planned retired star pages will be added in the future. These pages are brimming with my open and sincere impressions. Since yours may or may not concur with mine, if you would like to, please share your opinions towards Takarasiennes as well. Just click to the Fan Sharing page and fill in your sentiments! =)

 

The overture is about to start, you cross your fingers and hold your heart. It's curtain time and away we go, another op'nin, another show.

Look, my eyes are dry. The gift was ours to borrow. It's as if we always knew, and I won't forget what I did for love.

Names in this site are in Japanese order: family name first. Takarazuka romanizes in the Roman way of surnames first, but I'm used to hearing the stars introduce themselves in Japanese order, plus I'd like to stay consistent with my other websites. Since it's my site, I get the prerogative! (^_~)
 
Maybe you're thinking, "This girl has a lot of opinions.... where's she coming from?" To lend a bit of musical background to my analysis: I've participated in The Master's Chorale, a music arts summer camp, many children's musical productions (including a starring role), and taken voice lessons. I've performed at the Crystal Cathedral. Currently I play in a handbell choir, and I have enjoyed watching professional theatre shows for about 10 years. My sister is a choreographer who points out to me difficulty in dances.
