The Nakamura-za was one of the three chief licensed [[kabuki]] theatres in [[Edo]].
It was established by [[Nakamura Kanzaburo I|Nakamura (Saruwaka) Kanzaburô I]] in [[1624]], at Nakabashi in Edo. Over the years, it moved from Nakabashi to Negi-chô, then to Sakai-chô, then to Saruwaka-chô, along with the city's other major theatres.
The theatre went bankrupt and closed in [[1876]]; it reopened a number of times afterwards, but struggled severely and was never successful again. When the building was destroyed by fire in [[1893]], it was not rebuilt.
