Director Kodama’s Lecture Series: A Century of the Theatre Museum Session 2 “Laying the Foundations of the Theatre Museum — Focusing on the Final Years of Tsubouchi Shoyo —”   The Theatre Museum will celebrate the 100th anniversary of its opening in 2028. Our museum was established with the support of volunteers from various fields to commemorate Tsubouchi Shoyo’s seventieth birthday and the completion of his 40-volume translation of the Complete Works of “Shakespeare,” to which he devoted half his life. Since then, we have collected more than one million valuable materials related to theatre and film from Japan and around the world, and have made them available to the public through exhibitions, publications, and a digital archive. Over the course of a century, we have encountered many theatre practitioners and cultural figures and have maintained close ties with trends in the worlds of theatre and moving images. As part of the centennial celebrations, the museum director will present a lecture series that divides the museum’s diverse, century-long history into several periods and introduces distinctive holdings together with the currents of theatre and film in each era. Session 2 continues the story after the opening of the Theatre Museum, following on from Session 1. After the building was completed with the support of many donors, various measures were considered to lay the museum’s foundations, including maintenance and management, the collection of exhibition materials, and the organization of support groups. These developments will be discussed with a focus on the final years of Tsubouchi Shoyo. Instructor Ryuichi Kodama (Director, Waseda University Theatre Museum) Born in Hyogo Prefecture.

江戸時代中期の禅僧・白隠慧鶴（はくいんえかく、1685〜1768）は「臨済宗中興の祖」と呼ばれ、膨大な数の絵画と墨蹟を手掛けて禅の教えを広く伝えたことで知られています。 永青文庫の設立者・細川護立（もりたつ、1883～1970）は、16歳のときに肋膜を患い、療養中に白隠の著作『夜船閑話（やせんかんな）』に感銘を受けたことがきっかけとなり、白隠の書画の蒐集を始めました。永青文庫は、護立が集めた300点を超える白隠の書画を所蔵しており、質量ともに日本有数の白隠コレクションを誇ります。 この度、専門家の協力を得て、当館が所蔵する白隠および関連禅僧による書画の調査を実施しました。本展では、約2年におよぶ調査の結果を踏まえ、早稲田大学會津八一記念博物館との共同企画展として、永青文庫の白隠コレクションから厳選した作品を両館で紹介します。また調査の過程で、會津八一記念博物館が所蔵する禅書画の多くが護立の蒐集品であったことが明らかとなり、同館では護立旧蔵の白隠作品をあわせて展示します。 2026年秋は、徒歩圏内にある2館で白隠ワールドを存分にご堪能ください。 交通案内 《バス》JR目白駅（「目白駅前」バス停）・副都心線雑司が谷駅 出口3（「鬼子母神前」バス停）より、都営バス「白61 新宿駅西口」行きにて「目白台三丁目」下車徒歩5分 《都電》都電荒川線早稲田駅より徒歩10分 《地下鉄》有楽町線江戸川橋駅（出口1a）より徒歩15分／東西線早稲田駅（出口3a）より徒歩15分 《ドコモ・バイクシェア》E2-14. 永青文庫 永青文庫とは 肥後熊本藩54万石を治めた細川家の下屋敷跡に建つ、東京で唯一の大名家の美術館としても有名です。昭和25（1950）年に16代当主・細川護立が設立し、大名 細川家に伝わる武具・茶道具・書画や、護立が収集した近代日本画・中国古美術などを所蔵。年に数回、テーマを替えて展覧会を開催しています。 SNS：https://x.com/eiseibunko / https://www.instagram.com/eiseibunko
