The Takarazuka Revue is an all female troupe from Japan. It has been renowned for its gender-bender adaptations of classical Japanese and Western stories from the debut performance in 1914. With over 2.5 million audience members attending their performances annually, they have become cultural phenomena since then. From July 20 – 24 in 2016, they will be performing the award-winning musical, Chicago, as a part of the Lincoln Center Festival (July 13-31). They will be singing the complete Kander & Ebb classic songs in Japanese and performing Bob Fosse’s choreography.
