One of the most popular Mangas of all time, “Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon” is a global cultural phenomenon.  Created by Naoko Takeuchi, Sailor Moon began as a Manga in 1991 in Japan in a girls comic magazine published by Kodansha and has since sold over 46 million copies world-wide and has been translated into over 17 languages. It has been adapted as an anime and a live-action tv series which has aired in over 40 countries.

Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The Super Live premiered at the AiiA 2.5 Theater Tokyo in August 2018. Following its European premiere in Paris in November 2018, the show had its US premiere in Washington D.C. and New York in March 2019 which sold out within minutes, drawing audiences from over 40 states. It has since played a hugely successful run in Taiwan.  A UK engagement of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The Super Live begins performances on Feb 3, 2025 in London.
