WARNING!! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!
Passion - José and Carmen
Based on motifs in Mérimée's original work "Carmen," Don José is destined to be at the mercy of Carmen. His attraction to her passion is portrayed in this musical work. It premiered in 1999 starring Shizuki Asato and Hanafusi Mari of Cosmos Troupe and won the Excellence Award in the theatre department at the 54th Annual Agency for Cultural Affairs Arts Festival. In 2010, the work was revived by Star Troupe led by Yuzuki Reon and Yumesaki Nene on a well-received National Tour. This time, select Moon Troupe members will step up to the plate.
Apasionado!! III
Apasionado in Spanish means "hot" or "the passion of man." To the theme of "heat," its various forms are incorporated into this revue, such as in hot rhythms, heated emotions, burning love, and the flames of jealousy. People will gamble their lives in the name of passion. It was performed by Moon Troupe in 2008, led by Sena Jun and in 2009 by Oozora Yuuhi of Cosmos Troupe. A staged piece overflowing with adult atmosphere, a brush-up will be delivered.
- Passion - Jose and Carmen was first performed in 1999 starring Shizuki Asato, Hanafusa Mari and Wao Youka. It was performed again by Star Troupe in 2010 starring Yuzuki Reon, Yumesaki Nene and Suzumi Shio
- Apasionado!! was first performed in 2009 (Moon Troupe), then revived in 2012 (Cosmos Troupe).
- Although rare, the nibante has accompanied the top musumeyaku on national tour performances before, while the top otokoyaku stars in another show. An example of this is Mizu Natsuki and Maikaze Rira's 2006 national tour of The Rose of Versailles.
- Final performance for Maihina Kanon.
