Description

Historical 18th century theatre, in the heart of Naples' old town, characterised by marvellous, rococo style architecture.

The extensive building has a large stalls area with velours seats and a long series with boxes and mini boxes among which the central royal box stands out for its regal elegance. This theatre was the centre of theatrical activity for the famous Neapolitan comical actress, Luisa Conte and her grandiose company, much loved by the locals, for around 20 years. Today since the actress' death her place has been taken by the great young actress Lara Sansone who, together with the Sanazzaro theatre company, now brings to the stage the Neapolitan comedies of times gone by, a comedy which mirrors the heart of Naples' historical centre.
