Yuichi Nakamaru of KAT-TUN is doing his first one-man stage show, called "Nakamaru-kun no Tanoshii Jikan." In addition to being the lone star, Nakamaru will be in charge of planning and directing as well.
Nakamaru is actually the first member of KAT-TUN to get a solo show, and he said he was uncertain about it when discussions started in January, especially considering that the group includes popular stars like Jin Akanishi and Kazuya Kamenashi. Nakamaru does not even have experience as a major cast member in a theatrical production.
Nakamaru commented that he has tried to squeeze everything he wants to try into the performances, which are scheduled to run for about 90 minutes each. Segments include song, dance, beatboxing, and skits.
"Nakamaru-kun no Tanoshii Jikan" will first run at The Globe Tokyo from August 10 to 24.
