This troupe is tremendously popular, especially amongst Japanese housewives who have fallen in love with masculine roles played by the actresses. The men they portray are sensitive and caring -- the total opposite of many macho, work-obsessed Japanese men. Often the housewives send flowers, love letters, and other tokens to the gender-bending players. The film also takes the viewer backstage to witness the rigorous training of the star-struck yet highly disciplined women. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi
