Wow they did a really good job
I am so there when it hits Broadway!
Fantastic work! I’d see this in an instant.
My family won tickets to a live-action version of the Rankin/Bass “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” in 2019 and they did a wonderful job with the puppets, I suspect this would best that by several orders of magnitude.
Here are some pics in case you’re an old like me and don’t have the insta…
It looks amazing!!!
Oh… and in case you’ve not seen it, there was a stage version of Rurouni Kenshin by the Tararazuka Revue a few years ago (an all woman musical theater) and it was amazing (I got to see a video of it at a convention):

The best part was the busby berkeley performance at the end…
Oh, and not from an anime, but I really want to see the staged production of Neil Gaiman’s Ocean at the End of the Lane…
And the set piece with that story…
Goosebumps! Makes me want to watch the movie tonight.
Just WOW, huh?
Right? I do hope the Spirited Away play tours… I’d love to see it.
It does look amazing and I also quite like that you can see some of the puppeteers so it is all human-scale.
Lest we forget the off-Broadway production… /s
Awesome. Spirited Away is one of my top 10 films of all time. Such wonderful animation!
I know… amazing, right?
Thank you for this!
