WARNING!! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!
the River Glimmers
Dew drops deep in the mountains slowly gather together. Then, like a snapshot of nature and life seen in a mirror, a river grows and flows for all eternity. It glimmers with hopes and dreams. The river is alive, replenished through song.
A serene production showing that river through song and rhythmical dance.
The Little Mermaid
An emotional and sentimental work, which reminds us of nostalgic memories from younger days.
Venturing above the sea for the first time, the mermaid princess rescues a prince who had been cast adrift in the sea by a fierce storm. She falls in love with him and wants to see him again. What will she have to do to go to the human world...?
- The Grand Theater performance was the final performance for Tsuki Juri, Aozono Utage.
- The Tokyo performance was the final for Senka star Kamo Sakura, as well as Machi Hikaru.
