Kabukiza (Kabuki Theater) |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Kabukiza is a Kabuki theater first established in 1889. It was reconstructed after the Great Kanto Earthquake of September 1923, and today's building is a 1951 reconstruction of the second building following destruction in World War II. This Momoyama-style building is a landmark in the Ginza area. Vermillion-lacquered circular columns in the entrance hall and a scarlet carpet provide for a most prestigious atmosphere. For those interested in seeing Kabuki, single shows can be enjoyed inexpensively by buying a "Makumi" seat, (One-act) ticket.
