A career across performance

Mari Natsuki is a Japanese singer and actress born in Tokyo on 2 May 1952. Her work spans music, theatre, television and film.

She released the single Kinu no Kutsushita in 1973 and later expanded her career into stage acting. Her theatre work earned recognition in Japan.

In the Japanese version of Spirited Away (2001), Natsuki voices both Yubaba, who controls the bathhouse, and her twin sister Zeniba.

Her work with the story continued onstage: her official record-label biography lists the 2022 stage production of Spirited Away among her activities.
