Template:Unit infobox Engeki Joshibu (演劇女子部; Women's Theater Club), also known as Gekijyo (劇女), is a Hello! Project acting club created at the end of 2013. The first production by Engeki Joshibu took place in March 2014.

Like Takarazuka, its productions include an all female cast playing roles of either gender. Historically, Engeki Joshibu has had members from all current Hello! Project groups as well as some Hello! Project OG members and girls solely a part of Engeki Joshibu through audition. Since Zoku 11nin Iru! Higashi no Chihei, Nishi no Towa, productions have also included actresses unaffiliated with UP-FRONT GROUP in their casts, such as former Takarasiennes.

Sudo Maasa of Berryz Koubou was appointed as playing manager of the acting club in March of 2015. She has appeared in only six productions since becoming playing manager, and has also directed one of them.
