People flock to Horikita Maki’s rendition of “Jeanne d’Arc”

Actress Horikita Maki (22) just celebrated the first performance of her debut stage play “Jeanne d’Arc” one week ago and today she already had another reason to be in high spirits.

The play is a huge success with more than 100,000 people that have already come to watch Horikita’s rendition of the national heroine of France at the “Akasaka ACT Theater” in Tokyo. Everyone in the team, including co-star Ito Hideaki (35), participated in a special event wearing their original costumes to celebrate its success and thank their supporters.

Horikita about her feelings: “We have broken through the 100,000 and it’s a great honor to be able to celebrate such a number during my debut stage play. I will continue to try my best for every performance and hope that all the fun we have as a team will be conveyed to the audience.”

Reporters also tried to get a comment out of Ito about the recent incident involving his good friend Ichikawa Ebizo, but he decided to stay silent on this matter.

Performances for “Jeanne d’Arc” will continue until December 15th.
