Romeo to Juliette cast, Snow version
Oct. 18th, 2010 07:04 am...Is Hankyu switching to actual casting by merit? Because I have no other explanation for the Romeo to Juliette cast.
It's going to be glorious. Kitarou as the main antagonist, allowed to let go of all the stops? Yes, please. Also a yes, please on Hiromi as the substitute antagonist after Tybalt's death, of course.
Saou Kurama as the Nurse will be - interesting, because it's a very major role and in a show with three mature female roles I guess it's Hankyuu-style to give the one with most singing to an otokoyaku in a skirt. Chigi!Mercutio I pretty much guessed, though I was betting on Mattsu being Tybalt rather than Benvolio. Still, all good. And Oonagi Mao's Prince has me intrigued - she really caught my eye in Karamazov, she has the charisma to carry opening a show.
And then there is Sakina as Death and Cecil as Love. Ah. Yes. That, I've got to see :D
