SAYUMINGLANDOLL ~Saisei~

SAYUMINGLANDOLL ~Saisei~ (SAYUMINGLANDOLL～再生～; SAYUMINGLANDOLL ~Rebirth~) is Michishige Sayumi's first solo performance series after coming back from hiatus. It will run from March 19 to April 16, 2017 at COTTON CLUB, and from May 17 to May 21, 2017 at STUDIO PARTITA.

The story of the performance is inspired by the sci-fi shoujo manga From Europa by Arita Nao which won a Gold Tiara Award from Shueisha in 2008. The original story is about Toto and Ganashi, survivors of the last ice-covered star, and Toto, who longs for love, believes she can find the boy of her destiny on another star. In SAYUMINGLANDOLL ~Saisei~, Michishige portrays Toto, an apprentice in the ice star circus group "Sayuminglandoll".

A soundtrack album will be released at the venue on April 10, 2017.

Official Description
''It has been about 2 years and 4 months since her graduation from Morning Musume. Michishige Sayumi will be "reborn".''

The stage is set at Marunouchi COTTON CLUB.

''During this, COTTON CLUB will be transformed into a theater. The performance is neither a concert, musical, nor dinner show; instead, it is a new world in which light and sound are woven together with images. Each show is about 80 minutes long with the themes "rebirth" and "hope".''

With your own eyes, please come and see this new "first step".

Soundtrack
The original soundtrack album of the performance will be released at the venue on April 10, 2017 as a digipak including a 24-page booklet. This will also be Michishige Sayumi's first solo album.
