Kiyomi Hayama, a native of
Osaka, was born on 11 January 1945 and educated at
Takarazuka Music School. After graduating from the Takarazuka Revue's 47th class (along with future First Lady
Miyuki Hatoyama), she was part of the Revue from 1961 until 1973, serving as a Star Troupe
musumeyaku. In 1975, she returned to the Takarazuka Revue as a choreographer for their stage plays, remaining there until 2023. Reviewing the
Takarazuka Revue Cosmos Troupe's November 2010 performance of
For Whom the Bell Tolls, Nekomaru Sakasegawa said that Hayama's "choreography brought out the coolness of the
otokoyaku to the fullest, leading to a flowing duet dance with
Sumika Nono". In addition to her work as a choreographer, she taught at Takarazuka Music School and in 1997 was appointed a trustee for the Revue. In 2014, she was inducted into the Takarazuka Revue Hall of Fame. Hayama died on 10 June 2023 at the age of 78.
