Rena Matsui: "Bakumatsu Junjo Den" play- opening night pics and video


 Rena will be turning 25 in about a month, appears as if she's about to leave her Idol days behind. Wondering if we'll see her have any more photobook, provocative mag spreads or remaining a singer. Rena did release her first solo single back in April, it was a fairly cool tune and nothing like the songs SKE did or still does.
 Haven't heard too much from Rena recently but that's probably because she was rehearsing for her first stage play and one she has the lead role in "Bakumatsu Junjo Den". You can also put the word 'new' in front of the title as it's kind of a sequel to the original play that first was staged back in 2009. The play opened today at the Tennoz Galaxy Theater in Tokyo, next month it moves on to Osaka.
 Really a big change for Rena as she portrays an unbeatable swordswoman, most of her role except for the "Gift" film have been less than serious roles. Have some pics from the press conference that took place before the first performance plus some of her in the play. Also have a video of both after the pics, prefer the Rena in the above pic but she still looks A-OK in a jumpsuit.
