I usually go to shows when in Osaka but I’ll be in Tokyo for a bit soon and I can’t seem to google anything. Maybe I am searching it wrong. I found one place but it doesn’t seem that promising. Does manzai stay in Osaka? Surely the groups go on tours? Looking for amateurs and big names.

Yoshimoto has a theater that always has rotating performances by their comedians.
There’s a yose (寄席）which I believe was in Shinjuku 3chome that had manzai too
Shinjuku Lumine the Yoshimoto for top tier, Jimbocho Yoshimoto, Shibuya Mugendai Hall for newcomers. Asakusa Engei Hall and Toyokan for more classical, older manzai duos plus rakugo.
Kind of weird you couldn’t look this up yourself but know enough Japanese to enjoy manzai shows.

The second result when googling 東京漫才 gives [Lumine the Yoshimoto](https://lumine.yoshimoto.co.jp/).
