==History==
Toho was created by the founder of Hankyu Railway, Ichizō Kobayashi, in 1932 as the . It managed much of the kabuki in Tokyo and, among other properties, the Tokyo Takarazuka Theater and the Imperial Garden Theater in Tokyo; Toho and Shochiku enjoyed a duopoly over theaters in Tokyo for many years.
Toho and Shochiku competed with the influx of Hollywood films and boosted the film industry by focusing on new directors of the likes of Kurosawa Akira, Ichikawa Kon, Kinoshita Keisuke and Shindo Kaneto.
After several successful film exports to the United States during the 1950s through Henry G. Saperstein, Toho took over the La Brea Theatre in Los Angeles to show its own films without the need to sell them to a distributor. It was known as the Toho Theatre from the late 1960s until the 1970s.Fox La Brea Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. Cinema Treasures. Retrieved on 2014-05-12. Toho also had a theater in San Francisco and opened a theater in New York City in 1963."Toho" Far East Film News December 25, 1963.
The Shintoho Company, which existed until 1964, was named New Toho because it broke off from the original company.
The company has contributed to the production of some American films, including Sam Raimi's 1998 film, A Simple Plan.
