 The Konpira Grand Theatre has a "suppon" as well, but scholar Samuel Leiter writes that he is unaware of another active theatre which uses a "karaido".A second "hanamichi", called the "kari hanamichi" and about half the width of the main "hanamichi", runs through the theatre towards the right side; a connecting plank is sometimes used to allow actors to cross between the two "hanamichi" at some distance from the stage.Much of the left and right walls of the seating area are composed of "shōji" panels, which can be slid like sliding doors to provide access to corridors which run outside the seating area.
