Did you ever playResident Eviland think to yourself, “man, this story would make a great musical?”
Nope, neither did I, butsomeonedid, because later this yearMusical Resident Evilwill open in Japan.
The show will be directed by G2 and star famed Japanese actorReon Yuzuki, who’s mostly known for playing male characters in the all-female show, Takarazuka Revue.
The production will be overseen by Capcom’s own Hiroyuki Kobayashi.
Believe it or not, this is not the first time a Capcom game has come to the stage. Takarazuka Revue has previously performed three shows based uponPheonix Wrightseries, and one inspired bySengoku Basara.
Musical Resident Evilwill run from September to October in Tokyo, and move to Osaka in November.
What other video games do you think might make great musical numbers?
