Unrelated but from Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 (released in 1995 in Japan & 2003 in North America):



She's credited twice in this game:



As for the musicals, not sure on those myself but she did appear to congratulate some of the Moon actresses who had their final performances like Anza in 1998 & Marina in 2005.
