| To facilitate the extensive process of revising all articles in Kuroshitsuji Wiki, we will focus on one aspect at a time. We will focus on the manga and all elements associated with it (i.e. characters and chapters). This template is to serve as a warning: pages/sections marked with this template, ranging from the anime characters, episodes, OVAs, musicals, songs, and out-of-the-universe information, will not be our priority; thus, they may not be up-to-date, substantiated, or thoroughly cleaned as of yet. |

Musical Kuroshitsuji: Noah's Ark Circus (ミュージカル「黒執事」~NOAH'S ARK CIRCUS~) is the fourth musical adaptation of the Kuroshitsuji manga. The musical toured four cities during its one-month run in late 2016.
Tickets for all four locations went on sale on September 4th, 2016. The musical ran from November 18-27, 2016, in Tokyo Dome City Hall, Tokyo; December 3-4 in Canal City Theater, Fukuoka; December 9-11 in Amashin Archain Hall, Hyogo; and December 17-18 in Kariya Cultural Center Main Hall in Aichi, Japan.
Synopsis
The fourth musical adapts the Circus Arc of the manga. Earl Ciel Phantomhive and his loyal, demonic butler Sebastian Michaelis have been entrusted by Queen Victoria to investigate a series of missing child cases. The common link among all of the children is a traveling troupe called the Noah's Ark Circus. Ciel and Sebastian infiltrate the troupe searching for the cause of the disappearances; unfortunately for them, the grim reapers are also watching the circus.

Trivia
- Ayuka Kurachi and Saya Chinen, the actors for Peter and Wendy, respectively, are members of G-Rockets, a Tokyo-based rhythmic gymnast group that markets itself as Japan's first female acrobatic dance company. Director Nobuhiro Mouri noted that in addition to the songs and dances expected in a musical, the creators wanted to add real circus performances to the show, including tightrope walks, mid-air swinging, and other acrobatics.[1]
- Matsui Tsukito was originally cast for the role of Doll. Due to vocal difficulties, he was replaced by Ginga Shitara less than a month before the show's opening date.[2]
