AKB48's Akimoto Sayaka to appear on stage play "Roman Holiday"

allkpop


On February 27th, it was revealed that AKB48�s Akimoto Sayaka will star in a stage play, �Roman Holiday� and will take on the role of Princess Ann, a role which Audrey Hepburn famously won an Academy Award with.

This stage play was first opened in Japan in 2010, and grabbed the attention of the viewers with the daring act of only featuring three performers. In 2010, ex-top star of Takarazuka Revue, Asami Hikaru played the role of Princess Ann and this time, Akimoto will take the role alongside�Shoda Yuki, a member of the Japanese theater company Bungakuza.

As for the other cast, Yoshida Eisaku will play the role of�Joe Bradley and Ogura Hisahiro as Irving Radovich.

Akimoto, as Team K captain with her singing and dance abilities, has also been displaying her acting skills recently, through her role in �Ultraman Saga�. Although there will be an immense pressure to play Audrey Hepburn�s role perfectly, people are looking forward to the fresh and young image she will bring to the role.

�Roman Holiday� will open its stage on May 12th and 13th at Theater Drama City in Osaka and from the 23rd to the 27th at Tennozu Galaxy Theatre in Tokyo.
