First Look at Sing on Tour at Universal Studios Japan; officially opens April 18

Universal Studios Japan has announced Sing on Tour , the new musical attraction, is set to open April 18, 2019. They’ve also released a 30 second teaser giving us our first-look inside the new Illumination Theater.

Inspired by the hit Illumination film, the story of the attraction finds theater manager, Buster Moon, bringing all the talent selected from his auditions to host a Japan Premiere.

The cast features Ash, the cheerful punk rock porcupine; Meena, a timid elephant with stunning voice; Rosita, a mother pig to 25 piglets; Johnny, an aspiring soulful singer; Gunter, the intensely dramatic performer, and Miss Crowly, Buster Moon’s assistant. The show will feature hit songs, including “Shake it off” and “Don’t You Worry ‘Bout a Thing”.

The show includes sophisticated one-of-a-kind animatronics, live actors, cutting-edge kinetic lighting and an enormous LED screen. The attraction has been created under the guidance of a world-renowned Broadway musical producer and features Mr. Teruyoshi Uchimura, who is the voice of Buster Moon in Japan.

The attraction will be held in the new “Illumination Theater”, and will be jointly developed with Universal Studios Japan and Illumination Entertainment.

Sing on Tour

Universal Studios Japan Osaka, Japan

“Sing on Tour” is a new, permanent live show inspired by the joyous jukebox of a film, “Sing.” The musical talent contest takes center stage again at Universal Studios Japan in a brand-new theater, jointly designed with the movie’s producers Illumination.

Teruyoshi Uchimura, voice-over actor from the Japanese version of the movie, returns to reprise his role as theater manager Buster Moon for “Sing on Tour.” This time, the animated stars will step out of the screen onto the stage to belt out some of the movie’s best songs in real life.

“Sing” topped the box office in Japan in 2017, bringing in 5 billion yen. A much-anticipated sequel to the hit movie, written and directed by Garth Jennings, is in the pipeline for 2021.

Universal Studios Japan announces Sing On Tour show

Words:  Michael Mander

| 1 min read

Universal Studios Japan has announced a new project in partnership with Illumination for a musical attraction with songs and characters from the movie Sing.

Sing On Tour will be located in “Minions Park”, the largest Minion Park in the world, beginning spring 2019. The stars of the film break through the two dimensional world to sing the hit songs from the movie in a dramatic live show.

The show attraction will be performed in the world’s first Illumination Theater, equipped with leading edge production quality.

Sing was released in 2016 and follows a group of anthropomorphic animals that enter a singing competition, hosted by a koala who is trying to save his theater. A sequel is scheduled for 2020.

In January, Universal Studios Japan announced four new attractions to open from spring 2018, including the world-first “UNIVERSAL SPECTACLE NIGHT PARADE: The Best of Hollywood”.

Located in Osaka, Universal Studios Japan  reported record attendance  last financial year. 14.6 million people visited the park, an increase of 700,000 in the previous year. By contrast, admissions to Tokyo’s two Disney parks fell by 0.6 percent to a just over 30 million.

This year, the results took a hit as a result of a number of extreme weather events.

Is that theater replacing anything or will this be an additional attraction?  

AlexanderMBush

It'll be apart of the Illumination Theater that got revealed back. ...depending on the odds, this may or may not be Universal's attempt on Country Bear. Out of anything, I am interested of two things. One, does this have a conncetion to that fromer image of a Nassal bust of Moon; and two, what @Disneyhead thinks.

Isn't the Illumination Theater the same thing as what USH got with Panda? This sounds like a standard video attraction.  

It's replacing the Horror Make-Up Show. As far as I know, it isn't a screen show, they're exaggerating how it's a "real" musical and the characters will "actually be singing" in front of you. You can see construction photos here .

Jwhee said: Maybe. Hopefully not. They basically already have a musion show, Playtime With Curious George. There's a greater chance of it being musion than AA though. Click to expand...
