Comment from Tsubasa Kizu (Senku)
“My name is Tsubasa Kizu and I play Senku. Less than a month into our rehearsals, we’ve been powering our way through!I’ll do my best to make sure that there are no injuries on set, and that myself and this wonderful cast and crew successfully complete this stage run. I really want to share how fun science can be with the audience, even if just a little bit. We’ll give it our all, so please continue supporting us until the very end!” Ⓒ米スタジオ・Boichi／集英社・「Dr.STONE」THE STAGE製作委員会Information
