Takarazuka Revue Company
The Takarazuka Revue Company was founded in 1914. In contrast that the Kabuki theater consists of only male performers, the Takarazuka Revue Company consists of only female performers who are single. Currently about 400 performers are divided into Flower troupe, Snow troupe, Moon troupe, Star troupe, Cosmos troupe, and Special group in Takarazuka. They perform shows and plays in the Takarazuka Grand Theater in Hyogo, the Tokyo Takarazuka Theater, and domestic and international tours throughout the year. There are two top stars in each troupe: one actress who plays the lead male role and one actress who plays the lead female role. Takarazuka's performances are usually romantic love stories, and it's said that 80-90% of the audience is female.
