Mizukawa Asami will star in her first leading role in a stage play titled "Gekidou" (Turmoil) as reported on 27 March. She will play the role of Kawashima Yoshiko, a Manchurian princess who was later adopted at the age of 6 by Kawashima Naniwa and later became a female spy of the Japanese military who dressed as a man during the Manchurian Incident and World War II. Although Mizukawa did play the heroine role in the 2005 stage play "Hohei no Honryou", she only appeared in a small number of scenes so this will mark her first formal entry into stage plays. According to the production crew, the reason why Mizukawa was selected was due to her varied images and ability to express different types of emotions. As she will turn 30 this July, it is expected that she will be able to show off a new charm through this stage play which will run from 23 August to 2 September at Shin Kokuritsu Gekijou.
