Beyond one sold-out show: doing the work that keeps the theater open.
Yoshimoto's vaudeville business expanded, and in 1917, the Yoshimoto Entertainment Department was established. The official history records the progress of increasing the number of yose in various regions.[2] We were at the stage of growing the success of one place into a sustainable operation.

In 1924, Sei lost her husband. The business continued after that, and in the 1930s, contact with the medium of radio expanded.[2][3] There is now a possibility to deliver art not only to people who go to the theater, but also to people in other places.
