Tokyo, June 17, 2013--Hearing the heavenly voices of Lea Salonga, Ramin Karimloo, Yu Shirota, and Sierra Boggess in "4 Stars: One World of Broadway Musicals" concert was an enchanting treat on our first day--and also our first visit--in Japan.

We were serenaded with familiar songs from "Miss Saigon," "The Phantom of the Opera," "Oklahoma," "The Last Five Years," "Songs for a New World," and many others. Hearing Lea, Ramin, Yu, and Sierra sang some parts of their songs in Nippongo was surprisingly delightful.

Below, allow me to share some exclusive photos we took backstage at Aoyama Theatre for BroadwayWorld.com.

"4 Stars," featuring Jason Robert Brown's orchestrations and arrangements, Fred Lassen's musical direction, and Daniel Kutner's direction, kicked off at Aoyama Theatre Saturday, June 15, and will run until Sunday, June 23. It will transfer to Umeda Arts Theater in Osaka from Thursday, June 27 to Sunday, June 30.
