本日は博多座「ワンピース」
公演の千穐楽 
公演の千穐楽 昨年の十月、十一月の新橋演舞場から始まり松竹座、博多座までの大盛況 
毎日沢山のお客様の笑顔 
と「また見たい！」
とのうれしいお言葉の数々
と「また見たい！」とのうれしいお言葉の数々そのような中、今月は熊本地震という大災害が公演中に身近で起きてしまいました。
直後は果たして舞台を続けられるのか、との思いもありましたが関係者そして応援してくださるすべての皆様のお力によって、今日を迎えることができました
しかしぽつんぽつんと客席に見受けられるようになった空席に胸が痛みました 
「舞台を心待ちにしていたのに交通が遮断されているため、残念ながら観劇できないけれど、博多座に行かれる方にはどうかそんな私たちの分まで楽しんでください」というメッセージを寄せてくださった方
被災され困難な状況にあるにも関わらず、私たち役者のことまで心配してくださった方
被災者の皆様を思いやる全国の皆様のメッセージ
ひとつひとつが忘れられない思い出です
幕間に行われました募金活動にはたくさんのお客様がご協力くださいました
「手と手繋いで」という言葉の元にすべての人々の心が一つになり、博多座が温かい気持ちで満たされていることを実感しました 
このお芝居に参加させていただけたことを心より感謝しております
皆様のご声援こそが「ワンピース」再演の後押しとなります 
どうか変わらぬお引き立てを何卒よろしくお願い申し上げます 
今回、残念ながらご来場できなかった皆様、そしてもうご覧になった皆様も是非「ワンピース」の舞台で再びお目にかかりましょう
あらためまして残るお一人の行方不明の方が早く発見されますよう、また被災地の復興を願い、被災者の皆様が1日も早く普段の生活を取り戻すことができますようお祈り申し上げております。

At last, it's the closing day today at Hakataza!
Since "One Piece" has raised the curtain first in the last October at Shinbashi Enbujyo, it's been a smash hit, thanks to you.
We have seen so many smiles with the words "I'll be coming back to see the show!" everyday.
We have experienced the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake during the performance this month near us.
Right after the disaster, we had not been sure whether we could continue the stage, but thanks to all of you, we are able to come to the closing day today.
However, to find some vacant seats in the audience area, my heart aches for those who couldn't come to the show because of the disaster.
I have received messages from so many people through stage and this blog.
"Although I've been looking forward to going to Hakataza, I am not able to achieve it due to the cut off traffics by the earthquakes. However, I am wishing that those who can go there enjoy the show as much as possible. Please do enjoy our share, too!"
I've received messages as such above have been sent to me.
There are people who are anxious about us even though they themselves are under severe conditions.
Of course, so many people from all over Japan sent messages to the victims in the area.
Every single word has become a memorable one for me.
During intervals, we have collected charity donations and so many people donated for it.
I am feeling that our heart becomes one with the lyrics "hand in hand" and Hakataza is filled with love and tenderness.
I am deeply grateful for being able to perform in this "One Piece".
It is your support and encouragement that will back up "One Piece" to be re-staged.
Hoping to see you again also those of you who can't come to theatre this time, on the stage of "One Piece".
Again, I am hoping that the missing college student will be found as soon as possible and the recovery of the affected area will be promoted as soon as possible so that the victims can go back to their usual daily life.
