Misono-za, Historic theatre in Naka Ward, Nagoya, Japan
The Misono-za theatre features a modern architectural design supervised by Kengo Kuma, incorporating a 170-meter building with retail spaces and residential units.
Founded in 1896, the theatre suffered destruction during World War II bombings and a 1961 fire before reopening in 2018 after extensive reconstruction.
The venue presents traditional kabuki performances, contemporary plays, musicals, and concerts, maintaining Japanese theatrical traditions in central Nagoya.
Located two minutes from Fushimi Station, the theatre contains 1,299 seats and provides subtitle guides in multiple languages for international visitors.
The theatre's emblem displays two dragonflies facing each other, and its popular ice monaka desserts often generate long queues at the concession stands.
