Roget/Rock On! (Snow Troupe 2010)

Or: My First Takarazuka, also known as "I Really Don't Need Another Obscure and Expensive Hobby"
( Pre-show )
( Roget )
( Rock On! )
( General impressions )
In conclusion, despite not understanding 90% of what was happening, I found that the acting was still compelling enough to draw me in. And of course trying to think about all the gender bending was extremely fun. I need to reread Jennifer Robertson in light of this, and though I understand her focus on the otoko-yaku—that seems to be where the majority of the fans' and the producers' energy is concentrated on—I'm really curious about the musume-yaku.
