This opened as the Umeda O.S. Theater, opening on Christmas Eve 1959 as a 578-seat 70mm single-screener, but could accommodate 1,500 people including the large standing room. It was first owned by O.S. Eigeki and first managed by Naonobu Kawabata. It was renamed the “New O.S. Theater” on February 12, 1991, following the O.S. Cinerama’s closure nearby.
Sometime during the late-1990s, it was twinned under the auditorium names “O.S. Theater” and “O.S. Theater CAP”, which the CAP auditorium was renamed the “O.S. Masterpiece Theater” in December 2005. This lasted until closing on September 24, 2007. The theater reopened as the TOHO Cinemas Umeda Annex the following month in October 2007.
