They will be joined by Aoi Tanaka as Musical Director. Due to existing scheduling commitments, original Japanese cast members Emiko Suzuki and Mahya Harada will not be appearing.
Producer Kenny Wax said: “It’s incredible to see how SIX has resonated with audiences around the world, and we are thrilled to welcome our wonderful Japanese cast members to London so they can reprise the roles they played so brilliantly in Japan. We, and the incredible current London cast, can’t wait for audiences to experience the Queens in a whole new way.”
Umeda Arts Theater Team said: “We are incredibly honoured that Japan has been chosen for the very first foreign-language production of SIX the Musical in London.
We cannot wait for London audiences to feel the power of our unstoppable Japan Original Queens — through a `one of a kind, no category` experience – delivered entirely in Japanese! Otanoshimini!
