Spirited Away: Live on Stage is now available on HBO’s Max streaming service for Western audiences.In 2022, Studio Ghibli collaborated with Toho’s theater division to bring Hayao Miyazaki’s iconic masterpiece, Spirited Away, to life on stage, with Mone Kamishiraishi (Your Name) and Kanna Hashimoto (live-action Assassination Classroom) double-cast as the film’s heroine, Chihiro. As detailed on ComicBook.com, English-subtitled versions of both productions are now available on HBO’s main streaming service.”I think because they’re just really good stories,” Caird explained. “At the heart, Miyazaki [is] a great animator, a great artist…he’s a great storyteller. And it is just that he tells his stories not through words. And so the secret of getting them right on the stage is to make sure that the imagery, the visual imagery, is faithful to Miyazaki’s vision and then everything else follows.” Additionally, Caird stated that he was drawn to the idea of creating an “authentic Japanese” production, and that Spirited Away stood out to him as the “most adaptable” of Miyazaki’s works.
