Break It!, also referred to as ZIXSTA (ジクステ JIKUSUTE) for short, is a 2021 stage play featuring ZIX & Growth.
Overview
The first Side Story stage play in the ALIVESTAGE series, and the first "Side Story" play in TSUKIPRO's various stage series overall. The 2.5D stage play was first announced in 2020 after SCHOOL REVOLUTION Hello Kami-sama Boku wa Koko ni Iru！ concluded its final show on the final day of TSUKIPRO Sohonten.
The play is scheduled to run at Sogetsu Hall in Tokyo on February 27th and 28th in 2021 for a total of four shows. Unlike other TSUKIPRO stage play episodes, since it is predominantly focused on one unit there is only one playlist, similar to the first IVESTA episode.
The play focuses on ZIX, in particular their formation as a unit under Sun promotion entertainment, and features the members of Growth as guests.
Synopsis
Makoto Sugai & Mitsuru Hishida have decided to come together and become the signature unit of Sun promotion entertainment (SUNPRO)'s next generation.
They're constantly fighting to get there.
A play mingling envy, jealousy, betrayal, ulterior motives, and personal drama……
The light striking this glamorous world casts a profoundly dark shadow.
Friendship? Bonds? No, it's something different. During this time Makoto & Mitsuru have a "common interest", nothing more.
――This is the story of the birth of ZIX.[1]
