Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The Super Live began its North American tour in March, and by the power of the moon, it seems nothing can stop it! Get a look at the new stage adaptation of the beloved Japanese manga in the new photos below.
The Sailor Moon musical will visit nearly 20 cities. Originally slated for just one month, the tour has been extended until the end of April, with its final stop being the Palladium Times Square in New York April 24–26.
Although commonly referred to as Sailor Moon in the United States, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is the direct translation of the anime's Japanese title. Following a group of magical girls who protect the Earth from evil, the series is one of the most popular anime internationally, having been translated into 17 languages, with the manga having sold more than 46 million copies.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon's theatrical adaptation features a book and lyrics by Kaori Miura, who also directs, with music by Go Sakabe and KYOHEI, and choreography by Satomi Toma.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is performed in Japanese with English supertitles. Based on Sailor Moon's Dark Kingdom story arc, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon premiered in Tokyo in 2018, and has since played Paris, Taiwan, Washington DC, and New York in 2019.
Composing team Julia Mattison and Noel Carey break down the origin of four songs from the hit Broadway musical, including how they found the pun in “For the Gaze.”
