About

Built in 1925 for the Shinbashi geisha dance shows, Shinbashi Enbujo is now run by Shochiku alongside nearby Kabukiza. It hosts New Year kabuki, spectacular 'Super Kabuki' and new kabuki adaptations of manga and anime, as well as star-led plays. English support is lighter than at Kabukiza, so check KABUKI WEB for English information on each programme.
