Osaka Shiki Theatre

Osaka Shiki Theatre is a performance venue located on the seventh floor of HERBIS PLAZA ENT in Umeda, with seating for approximately 1,200 spectators. The space hosts musicals and theatrical productions using modern facilities designed to accommodate diverse types of stage performances.

The theatre opened its doors in January 2005 with a production of MAMMA MIA, marking a turning point for performing arts in Western Japan. This opening helped establish Osaka as a major cultural hub capable of attracting large-scale productions regularly.

This venue plays an important role in bringing theatrical productions to the region, drawing audiences who travel to experience live performances. The theatre serves as a cultural gathering point for people seeking quality stage entertainment beyond their home cities.

The theatre is easily accessible by public transport, with multiple railway stations providing direct access, including connection from Osaka-Umeda Station. Visitors should familiarize themselves with nearby bus stops and allow extra time to navigate through the shopping complex.

During select performances, the theatre provides glasses that display subtitles in English, Chinese, and Korean. This feature allows international visitors to follow performances in their own language while maintaining a clear view of the stage.
