Dotonbori Zaza, Entertainment theatre in Dotonbori district, Osaka, Japan.

Dotonbori Zaza is a theatre building located in the basement of the Nakaza Kuidaore building, featuring two separate performance spaces. ZAZAHOUSE accommodates around 150 people, while ZAZA POCKET'S is a smaller room with roughly 80 seats.

The venue occupies the site of the former Dotonbori Nakaza, which operated as the district's main entertainment hub in earlier periods. This historical continuity ties the current use to the location's longer past as a centre for live performances.

The ZAZA POCKET'S space features daily performances of Manzai, a traditional Japanese comedy style performed by two artists working with dialogue and wordplay. This venue serves as an important showcase where emerging performers develop their craft in front of live audiences.

The theatre is wheelchair accessible with facilities designed for visitors with mobility needs. When planning a visit, note that both spaces are located underground, and performances often draw good crowds.

Having two separate halls under one roof allows the venue to run different shows simultaneously while serving both smaller and medium-sized audiences. This dual structure enables it to programme traditional comedy alongside other theatre productions.
