Morning Musume starts 'Cinderella' Musical rehearsal

Aichan, who will play Cinderella in the Broadway musical in Tokyo Aug. 6-25, fronts 'Bomb Girl,' January 2008.

YO's rating: B | Heads up, Chris, if you're planning to attend a performance of 'Cinderella' (yes, the Rogers and Hammerstein version, it is reported), it's going to be at Shinjuku Koma Theater in Tokyo, Aug. 6-25, and rehearsals are underway, according to Life Project. Aichan is cast in the lede role. That's some pretty high-octane company, as Julie Andrews and Lesley Ann Warren played that partg in TV versions in the 1960s. Life project also has an intriguing, though tiny, cast photo giving us a glimpse of the nontraditional costumes for this show.
