Overview

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Toho’s production, Elisabeth the Musical is a captivating Viennese musical by Michael Kunze (script/lyrics) and Sylvester Levay (music/arrangement), directed by Shuichiro Koike. Premiered in 2000 at Tokyo’s Imperial Theater, this non-replica version blends elements of the original Vienna production and Takarazuka Revue’s style, portraying the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria (“Sisi”) from her 1854 marriage to her 1898 murder by Luigi Lucheni, with a focus on her obsession with death. The 2025-2026 tour features double-cast Elisabeths (Nozomi Fuuto, Rio Asumi) and triple-cast Todts (Yudai Furukawa, Yoshio Inoue for Tokyo; Furukawa, Inoue, Ikusaburo Yamazaki for Hokkaido/Osaka/Fukuoka), alongside performers like Mariyo Tashiro, Takanori Sato, and Mayo Suzukaze. Praised on X for its “haunting score” and “stunning costumes,” the ~2.5-hour show has drawn over 12 million spectators globally. Performances span Tokyo’s Tokyu Theatre Orb (~2,000 capacity), Osaka’s Umeda Arts Theater (~1,900 capacity), Hokkaido’s Sapporo Cultural Arts Theater Hitaru (~2,300 capacity), and Fukuoka’s Hakataza Theater (~800 capacity), continuing Toho’s legacy of long-running musicals like Les Misérables.

Disclaimer

Jasumo offers a facilitation service for foreign tourists and non-Japanese residents in Japan, helping them access and apply for tickets to various events, including but not limited to sports, festivals, and cultural activities. We are not a reseller of tickets, nor do we sell tickets directly. Our role is to support international customers by guiding them through the official ticket booking process, ensuring they can secure their tickets through recognized platforms and authorized providers.

As a business based in Japan with a bilingual staff and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by non-Japanese visitors, we address common bottlenecks such as:

• Language Barriers: Navigating Japan’s primarily Japanese-language ticketing systems can be challenging for foreign tourists. Jasumo provides bilingual support to bridge this gap and ensure a smooth booking experience.
• Access to Japanese-Only Platforms: Many events in Japan require local knowledge to navigate and access, and often these platforms do not offer international payment options or are difficult to use for non-Japanese speakers. We facilitate the booking process by providing guidance and helping with international payment methods where applicable.
• Limited Availability & Complex Registration: Events in Japan often have limited capacity, and understanding the timing and process for securing tickets can be confusing for international visitors. Jasumo helps you manage deadlines and requirements, giving you the best chance of securing your entry.

Due to high demand for Elisabeth the Musical, with critically low availability (e.g., 30 SS seats for Tokyo Oct 10, Hokkaido lotteries closing Sep 7), availability is not guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued if entries cannot be secured through official channels or in case of cancellation. We strongly recommend purchasing tickets by August 15, 2025, at official prices (~¥7,000–¥21,000) or monitoring official resale (~5 days prior to each show) to avoid inflated reseller prices (e.g., ¥25,000 for SS).
