What is Death Note: The Musical about?
If you had the power over life and death, what would you do?
When gifted student Light Yagami discovers a notebook that grants the power over life and death, his attempt to create a better world takes a dangerous turn. As his actions draw the attention of the brilliant and relentless detective L, a high-stakes battle of minds begins.
What starts as a pursuit of justice becomes a descent into obsession, forcing both men to confront the true cost of power, and the limits of morality.
