Why go

The theater remains a working stage for music, drama and dance, not just a historic facade. Its restored auditorium and Roberto Lewis decoration connect the city's early republican architecture with a living performance program. Check the current calendar if the interior matters to you; the street-facing building can still be appreciated during a daytime Casco walk.

What to look for

  • A restored performance hall in Casco Antiguo
  • The neoclassical façade and performance program offer a cultural counterpoint to the district’s churches and plazas.

Useful to know

  • Choose a performance from the theater's current program for interior access; do not assume daytime tours.
