The official website for the forthcoming stage play adaptation of Aya Kanno’s dark fantasy historical drama manga Baraou no Souretsu / Requiem of the Rose King is updated with a key visual including Richard III, played by a double cast of man and woman – Sayato Arima (Mafufu Sato in the given stage play) and Yumi Wakatsuki (ex-Nogizaka46 member).
It is a very difficult role, but I will do my best with Richard as he struggles with his problems.
Richard III is an intersex character in the story.
