Nagame Theater

A theater continued to be loved by the locals.

A two-story wooden theater built in 1937. It is a full-fledged theater equipped with a revolving stage and runway, and the magnificent entrance is said to be inspired by the Kabukiza Theater in Tokyo. During its peak years in the 50s, it attracted many people with performances by theatrical companies, song shows and rokyoku, or storytelling with shamisen accompaniment.
It has been designated as the city's important cultural property, and on days they do not have performances, visitors are free to explore the theater including the stage, backstage room and the basement where you can take a look at the related documents. As the name "Nagame", which means "view" in Japanese suggests, the view from the second floor is a must-see.
