There's been a Spirited Away stage play running in Japan for a few years now, I believe, and they had a recording of it broadcast overseas recently. BUT now it's supposed to be going to London's West End next April-July!

Pre-sales of tickets opened this morning, and I got tickets! I'm going to go and see it next May!

It seems that general booking starts on the 7th, so it'll still be available for anybody else in London or willing to go there. Good seats aren't cheap, but I guess that's just how it is.

I'm still hoping to see the Totoro show too, probably in February.

Multiple tongue extensions your way!!!, LOL

Actually, more ENVY than hate...

When it happens, let us know what you think of the production(s)...

Failure to do so, merits a visit from Yubaba and maybe even a very hungry/barfy 'No-name'...

You have been warned! lol

I don't know if you've seen it, but there is a short clip of different parts of the stage play...

Go to IMDB and type in "Spirited Away" and you woll find the clip...

or Don't if you think it will mar your enjoyment of the play... I only looked because I don't forsee any way of me seeing the play myself...

I'll definitely share my thoughts on it when the time comes! It's still far off though. I can't even get train tickets for it yet.

I think I have seen a little trailer for it at some point when it was announced. The one you're talking about is probably from when they did cinema screenings (could be the same as what I saw, but I'm not sure). But anyway, I think I'd rather not go looking for it again for now. I'm happy to wait for the real thing!
