Interview with Romeo & Juliet’s Leoni

(日本語と英語の字幕) It’s been fascinating watching Leoni’s growth as a performer. Over the course of rehearsal, little by little, she has come out of her shell and blossomed into an emotional and expressive actor. We’re very proud of her and excited to see her take on a big role in Romeo & Juliet.

One important thing to know about Leoni: She is one of the sweetest people we’ve worked with, but please do not hand her any breakable props. She’s stronger than she looks;)

(日本語と英語の字幕) Yoko is new to Nagoya Players and has impressed us with her passion, commitment, and ability. She’ll be playing the role of ABRAHAM and is also a key member of ENSEMBLE in Nagoya Players’ upcoming production on Romeo & Juliet.

Yoko is a great example of a newcomer who flourishes with training and practice. She first started with NP during our Acting Basics Workshop and showed great potential. From there, she auditioned and got a part in the show. And even though Yoko’s English isn’t perfect, she doesn’t let that stop her from participating and getting better. 

Yoko has put in a lot of work preparing for the show, and we’re so excited to see her perform in her first English play. Please come out and support her and the other members of cast.

Interview with Romeo & Juliet’s Emily Bailey

(日本語と英語の字幕) Fan favorite Emily Bailey is back again. She’ll be playing the role of MERCUTIO in Nagoya Players’ upcoming production on Romeo & Juliet.

Emily has been performing with NP since 2019 and has taken on a wide variety of roles in that time. In this interview, we catch up with Emily and hear about her performances in 2023 — Edward Albee Showcase and Untolled. She then discusses her thoughts on MERCUTIO, Shakespeare, and more.

Emily is always a delight to watch perform, and her approach to the sword-wielding jokester of Romeo & Juliet, MERCUTIO, is unique and refreshing. Please come watch Emily in what is proving to be a very exciting and dynamic production.
