Great news! Now how about sending Uwe and Pia to do Elisabeth in England? ;D Who am I kidding, I know that'll never happen |

According to his website, Martin Pasching will be the cover Der Tod.

In case someone wants to know about the Japanese performers for the concert:
Shizuki Asato was Death from the Soragumi(Cosmos Troop), from 1998
Otori Rei was Sisi from the Hanagumi(Flower Troop), from 2002
I am so excited for this even the casting as well( any show with Mate and Maya in it must be good, ;D).

Have any other cast members been announced? I know Bruno Grassini will be Lucheni.

Here's the official site (sorry it's Japanese): www.umegei.com/erz/main.htmlHave any other cast members been announced? I know Bruno Grassini will be Lucheni. Bruno Grassini? I didn't know that.. I'd be really happy if you could tell me where you found the info as I haven't heard anything about it. I am very displeased with the people arranging the production on Japan's side. How come they haven't announced any cast member except for Elisabeth, Der Tod, and Rudolf? Where are Sophie, FJ, Lucheni, etc? I'm guessing that they (the Japanese guys in charge of this production) think that most people in Japan don't know or care much about European performers... it's probably true but I still wish they would release the cast info. |

It's ok for me ;D(though I still need to know my kanji more  ). I have to agree with you Marielle, there is still more casting they need to do. All I know is that they've casted some performers from Takarazuka and then they casted Maya Hakvoort, Mate and Lukas. |

Why do they take Marjan as Helene? I mean.. Helene is not a great role, just some lines to sing.

I'm puzzled, too. Maybe she'll end up covering a couple of roles?

Yes, but what roles would she cover? There aren't lots of 'girl' roles in Elisabeth, and I can't really imagine her as a cover Elisabeth yet. By the way, where does the information about Bruno Grassini being Lucheni come from? Just wondering because I like to be able to cite sources when giving the information onwards, you know.  |

She could cover Ludovika/Frau Wolf or some of the other small female roles (Esterházy, Windisch, etc.) I don't think she's the right type for Elisabeth, either. d.hatena.ne.jp/kaorukangeki/20070103It's all Hanji, but the names are there - Maya, Máté, Bruno, Lukas, Marjan, Martin. MiladyDeWinter |

Thank you! And regarding Marjan, yeah, she could cover Ludovika/Frau Wolf, Esterházy or someone like that, but it's still funny with her having been Juliet in R&J, Sarah in the upcoming TdV concert, and then going to the Asia tour just to sing a very small ensemble part and possibly cover a couple of somewhat larger ensemble roles. |

Maybe she wants the experience of travelling to Japan? That's probably worth taking a smaller/ensemble role.
They announced the full casting for the TdV concert quite late, so not all that surprised that they haven't announced everyone for Japan as yet. And yes, I guess in general European names won't mean much to most of the audience!

This is pure speculation, but maybe she might take on the role to fill some of the time until Rudolf shows up? I could see her being a candidate for Mary when the show comes to Vienna.
