   I am back from seeing the Spirited Away theatre play (in the cinemas, Japanese with English subs)
   
   It was absolutely amazing. You cannot even call it an adaptation, because it IS the movie, but in a play
   
   The characters looks like they should, down to the actor, sounding like they should and looking like they should due to the amazing costumes
   
   It is pretty much scene by scene, with all the dialogue covered, even movements to movements in some cases
   
   I don't remember a single thing missing
   
   The performance was amazing and the set was phenomenal and of extremely high quality
   
   It was simply amazing
   
   Today was Mone Kamishiraishi as Chihiro

     @SuperSnekFriend ALL of the characters were there. The frog and the mouse and birds were puppets

     @Pendragon it was spectacular. The budget that went into this must have been insane

     @marlin according to the cineplex website
     
     "April 23 performance features Kanna Hashimoto as Chihiro April 26 performance features Mone Kamishiraishi as Chihiro"
     
     And Mone Kamishiraishi was indeed in the end credits

     @coolboymew Shouldn’t it have been Kanna Hashimoto?

     @marlin No idea. The cineplex showing only shows a single cinema showing for tomorrow and no May 2nd showing, but that may appear later... or not

     @marlin it all depends on cineplex at the end
     
     It seems like the website is specifically for the US showings. I'm in Canada
     
     So it's possible that there's simply for showings for the US

     @marlin it was 20 here too
     
     And I'd say yes. It's more expensive than usual but time went by fast despite it being 2h45mins

     @coolboymew Was it worth 20 freedom bucks (or leaf equivalent)?

     @coolboymew Before I buy my ticket, was this live from Tokyo or was it a prerecorded showing?

     @marlin Yeah, it was an excellent show. Saw it with the whole family accidentally (I went to buy it after @coolboymew recommended it last month, and everyone wanted in on it). Looking up the booking page, I got Kanna Hashimoto on the April 23rd showing I went to (I didn't know that was a variable until now).

     @jokercoco yeah, it's pretty much 1:1 with the movie, with maybe just a few additions like a few songs
