For some reason, this page has been proposed for deletion even though I have cited three texts that testify to this theater's importance, ones I could quickly find on the internet. It is not hard to find other published sources on the theater as well, since Murayama is one of the most important avant-garde figures in Japanese art history (in English, see Gennifer Weisenfeld's Mavo: Japanese artists and the avant-garde), and the theater is one of the only in Japanese history to have been produced through the influence of the avant-garde (see Nihon eiga to modanizumu). It is vastly more significant than the majority of movie theater entries on Wikipedia which only list up currently existing theaters, with no proof of their historical importance. THIS theater was actually historically important and has been noted so accordingly.--Michitaro (talk) 13:21, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
