The Kawarazaki-za (河原崎座) was one of the major kabuki theatres in Edo (modern-day Tokyo) during the Edo period and into the Meiji period. Not being one of the four theatres formally licensed by the Tokugawa shogunate the theatre was largely inactive for long stretches of time operating only when the Morita-za facing financial difficulties or physical destruction of its theatre building temporarily loaned its license to the Kawarazaki-za.
