Abstract

Since its birth in Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture, the Takarazuka Theater Company has owned a theater in the same city. This theater troupe had a training school for its members and a private group of permanent writers and directors. The troupe also had all the staff needed for theatrical productions, from the theatre groups, art, costumes and lighting to the perpetual composers and orchestras. There is only one such theatre group in Japan.
In the seventieth year of the Takarazuka competition, the content and format of the performances changed from the war years to the post-war years. To establish the band in competition and format performances. The first performance of the same troupe is said to be the first opera performance in Japan. In this way, Takarazuka's flying was ahead of its time. And lo and behold, that would save him from his body. The Takarazuka troupe has a variety of forms of theatrical and earnings program voice assistant programming, including plays, performances, and other forms of entertainment.
In this research, I deal with a comprehensive analysis of the Takarzuka theatre's reception of Middle Eastern literature and how to employ this reception in reshaping the collective consciousness of the Japanese people to adopt the expansionist political ideas towards East Asian countries by changing the prevailing popular culture and enhancing the collective sense of Japanese nationalism and patriotism.
