Something you work on doing as a performer<br>2. The role that has affected you the most<br>3. Your favorite warmup method<br>4. The aspect you focus on in stage makeup<br>5. Your goal as a performer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Tenma Michiru, Flower Troupe<\/em><br>1. While following the guidelines for each show given by the director, I want to leave an impression as \u2018Tenma Michiru\u2019.<br>2.&nbsp;<em>CODE HERO<\/em>\u2019s Kenneth. Ever since I was in that show, even now, I\u2019ll keep thinking &#8216;what became of him after all that\u2026?\u2019 (Since his ultimate fate isn\u2019t shown\u2026)<br>3. I do core training with Yuugiri Rai-san. (Nickname: Beautiful Body Time)<br>4. It\u2019s the &#8216;base\u2019. I\u2019m always studying how to do the initial foundation in order to make a round face look long, or, since I\u2019m baby-faced, how to look like a middle-aged guy.<br>5. I want to make people think &#8216;That\u2019s so Taso\u2019 or &#8216;This is truly Tenma Michiru~\u2019 in the best possible way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Matsukaze Akira, Cosmos Troupe<\/em><br>1. When I\u2019m onstage, I want to convey everything I\u2019m thinking or feeling to the audience, so whatever happens I want to confront it clearly and sincerely, and I value the importance of continuing the legacy of everything that\u2019s come before me.<br>2. A role that\u2019s really affected me\u2026 John Shakespeare, from\u00a0<em>Shakespeare<\/em>, I think. I was struck once again by how difficult acting really is, and also I couldn\u2019t really separate myself from the role in the end so I feel like some part of myself was integrated into him. I felt afterwards &#8216;I must learn more about how character creation!!\u2019<br>3. It depends how I feel when I wake up each morning! I\u2019ll use a StretchPole<sup>1<\/sup>, or an exercise ball, or some days I\u2019ll emphasize strength training\u2026 Also, I make sure never to leave the house without soaking in the bath!! That\u2019s my daily routine!!<br>4. Having a 3-dimentional foundation. I think it\u2019s really important to the total makeup presentation for the contouring to be attractive and natural-looking!<br>5. I want to be a performer who can have an effect on each and every person in the audience. Also, if just one more person decides they are glad they discovered Takarazuka I will be happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Satsuki Aina, Snow Troupe<\/em><br>1. My belief is that a person\u2019s real qualities are reflected onstage, so I endeavor every day to be an excellent woman and human being.<br>2. It\u2019s so hard to choose one\u2026but actually, Isabella from&nbsp;<em>Don Carlos<\/em>&nbsp;was my first large role, so I was giving it my all to get over the new barriers in front of me.<br>3. I do slow stretches of various muscle groups using a StretchPole.<br>4. I think eye expression is really important, so I\u2019m careful about line width and shading.<br>5. I want to be able to change the atmosphere within the theatre at will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Shirotae Natsu, Star Troupe<\/em><br>1. At the root of it I think it\u2019s a matter of &#8216;living\u2019 onstage, but also having a sence of gratitude and an inner transparency that can take on any aspect &#8211; I want to be able to &#8216;catch\u2019 anything that comes my way.<br>2. Paulina, from\u00a0<em>The Seagull<\/em>. I was really able to experience how that role came to life.<br>3. It depends on the situation that day, what shape I\u2019m in, or what advice I\u2019ve been given.<br>4. I do my makeup while trying to have a sense of what it is to breathe life into &#8216;Shirotae Natsu\u2019.<br>5. I want to have many facets and be a performer who makes people say &#8216;wow, she has style!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/stretchpole.com\/\">A Japanese brand of exercise roller.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>STAGEism was a Kageki feature where 4 siennes answer several different questions about their techniques and goals onstage.
