A new stage play adaptation based on Capcom's Ace Attorney video game franchise called "Turnabout Spotlight" will run from July 31 to August 4 at the Rikkoukai Hall in Kitashinagawa, Tokyo.
The story of the play takes place at a theater where Steel Samurai is performing. Watching the performance are: passionate defense attorney Phoenix Wright (played by Kentaro Kanesaki) and his assistant Maya Fey (played by Karin Ogino); Larry Butz (played by Akihiro Hayashi), prosecutor Miles Edgeworth (played by Takuma Wada) and detective Dick Gumshoe (played by Ryuko Isogai).
During Steel Samurai's fight scene, a large lantern suddenly falls down, setting the stage on fire. Wil Powers (played by Isamu Sugihara) has been labeled a suspect, but for some reason, he refuses to hire a lawyer and does not speak. The eyewitnesses are all of the audience members.
Eisaku Saito will be writing the scripts for the play, while Makoto Ozeki handled casting. Tickets for the play will be available for purchase for the price of 5,800 yen (about US$57).
