Takizawa Kabuki

Inaugurated as Takizawa Enbujo in the Spring of 2006, the Takizawa Kabuki was conceptualised as a revolutionary live entertainment show featuring Japanese superstar, Hideaki Takizawa, the youngest actor to be featured in the history of the prestigious Shinbashi Enbujo Theatre.

The Shinbashi Enbujo Theatre dates back to 1925, and was renowned for showcasing traditional Japanese theatre. The theatre now features many types of plays and performances, including Kabuki and Super Kabuki. Takizawa Kabuki, directed and produced by Johnny Kitagawa, President of Johnny & Associates, debuted in this theatre.

With a loyal fan-base of hundreds of thousands of audience in Japan,this show has achieved four consecutive long-running performances at the Shinbashi Enbujo theatre since 2009. From the years 2010 to 2012, the show venue then changed to Nissay Theatre under the new title Takizwa Kabuki. In 2013, the show returned to Shinbashi Enbujo theatre under the original title Takizawa Enbujo, and finally in 2014, the title of the show was reverted to the permanent title of Takizawa Kabuki. In 2014, Takizawa Kabuki premiered in Fukuoka  and Tokyo.
