    Takarazuka Revue’s 2007 production of the Viennese musical Elisabeth. The musical tells the story of Elisabeth (“Sisi”), the Empress of Austria, from her engagement and marriage in 1854 to her murder in 1898 at the hands of the Italian anarchist Luigi Lucheni, through the lens of her growing obsession with death, as her marriage and her empire crumble around her at the turn of the century.
