According to the Anime News Network, the stage play adaptation of Hiro
Mashima's Fairy Tail
manga was approved back in December 2015. Although there is no word as to
whether the play will reach U.S. shores, I thought it would be nice to see the
cast in costume. The play will run at the Sunshine Theatre in Ikebukuro, Tokyo
from April 30 to May 9.
