Explanation and Etymology - (劇場) gekijyou

"劇場" is a Japanese word that means "theater" or "performance venue". The word is composed of two Kanji: the first, "劇" (geki), means "drama" or "theatrical play", while the second, "場" (jou), means "place" or "space". The complete etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when kabuki theater became popular in Japan. At that time, theaters were called "yose", but over time, the term "劇場" came to be used to refer to these presentation spaces. Since then, the word "劇場" has become common in Japan to refer to any type of theater or performance venue.
