The oldest kabuki theater in Japan that tells the history of the theater town
It began operating in the Edo period as one of the theaters approved by the Tokugawa shogunate. It was newly opened in 2018 after seismic reinforcement work. The annual "Yoshimi kaomise gala" held at the end of the year is famous.

The fold-up coffered ceiling, which is a historical architectural style of Japan, and the Art Deco style harmonize.
This theater is located in the birthplace of Kabuki, and plays and musicals are still performed there. Pay attention not only to the program but also to the design of the building!
