Театр Гольдони - самый старый театр в Венеции, существующий и по сей день. Театр Карло Гольдони был открыт в 1622 году, но с тех пор неоднократно расширялся и реконструировался. Первоначально театр назывался Сан-Сальваторе и Сан-Лука. Театр по-прежнему расположен в районе <a href="https://venicexplorer.com/cs/the-city/geography-of-venice/san-marco" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Сан-Марко</a>, до него легко добраться из любой части города.
В 1875 году <a href="/ru/gorod/explore-venecija/venice-theatres">театр Гольдони</a> был переименован и посвящен знаменитому венецианскому драматургу Карло Гольдони. Впервые Гольдони выступил в театре в 1873 году. Карло Гольдони обновил театральное искусство и сделал <a href="/ru/">Венецию</a> еще более великой. Тексты Гольдони, обычно написанные на венецианском языке, затрагивают множество тем, имеющих отношение к повседневной жизни. Благодаря своим театральным постановкам Гольдони удалось создать мир, который изменил ценности и темы европейского театра.&nbsp;
Театр Карло Гольдони был построен по заказу семьи Вендрамин; с 1600 по 1800 год в этом здании проходили исключительные театральные сезоны. Театр был перестроен и открыт в 1979 году.
Театр Гольдони находился в самом центре очень продуктивного периода для венецианского театра.&nbsp;
Сегодня здесь располагается Государственный театр Венето, в котором проводится множество театральных мероприятий.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Гран Театро Ла Фениче - один из самых известных оперных театров Европы, расположенный в самом сердце района Сан-Марко. С самого начала это был подиум для венецианской аристократии. Место, где они могли предаваться помпезности и роскоши, которыми могли похвастаться только аристократы.&nbsp;&nbsp;
1 ноября 1789 года был объявлен конкурс на проектирование и строительство театра. После долгих дебатов архитектором был выбран Джаннантонио Сельва. 16 мая 1792 года театр был официально открыт оперой "I Giochi Di d'Agrigento" Джованни Паизиелло на либретто Алессандро Пеполи.
Театр Ла Фениче заменил первоначальный театр Сан-Бенедетто, который был уничтожен во время пожара. На протяжении веков Ла Фениче претерпела множество ремонтов, расширений и реконструкций. Название Ла Фениче было дано семьей Гримани, учредителями театра, в честь священного животного, восставшего из собственного пепла.&nbsp;
&nbsp;Новый театр сразу же занял абсолютно важное положение в лагунном городе.&nbsp;&nbsp;К сожалению, театр был разрушен в декабре 1836 года, но был быстро восстановлен братьями Томмазо и Джамбаттиста Медуна.
&nbsp;29 января 1996 года театр был вновь уничтожен пожаром, устроенным из-за задержки ремонтных работ. Реставрация была завершена в декабре 2003 года. Торжественное открытие состоялось в присутствии президента Республики Карло Азельо Чампи, а Риккардо Мути открыл инаугурационную неделю.
Ла Фениче сохранил свою итальянскую структуру пиаццы с отдельными лоджиями. Зал театра сделан из обработанного дерева для улучшения акустики. Театр состоит из театрального зала, пяти залов "Аполлон", сценической башни и двух боковых крыльев.
Сегодня Ла Фениче является неотъемлемой частью динамичного города Венеции. Каждый год здесь проводится новогодний концерт и другие важные мероприятия. Театр вмещает до 1000 человек. Мы рекомендуем вам соблюдать рекомендованный дресс-код. На сайте вы также найдете инструкцию по покупке билетов.&nbsp;
Если вы посетите Венецию, постарайтесь провести вечер в оперном театре, чтобы насладиться представлением в Гран Театро ла Фениче - это романтический опыт прошлых лет.

Театр Малибран, построенный в 1677 году, является одним из самых больших и роскошных в Венеции и расположен в Каннареджо. Первоначально он назывался Театро ди Сан-Джованни Кризостомо, затем в 1835 году был переименован в Театро Малибран. Здесь певица Мария Гарсия Малибран исполнила "La Sonnambula", не требуя никакого вознаграждения. На этом же месте когда-то стоял дом Марко Поло, разрушенный в 1597 году.
Нынешний театр является результатом двух реконструкций - в 1919 и 2001 годах. Сегодня этот театр имеет более широкие ложи и вытянутую галерею, напоминающую его первоначальную структуру. Малибран" привлекает тысячи итальянских зрителей каждый год и вмещает около 900 человек.&nbsp;
В театре Малибран выступали самые разные артисты и музыканты и ставились самые красивые итальянские оперы. Мы помним такие постановки Джузеппе Верди, как "Травиата", "Набукко", "Троваторе" и "Фальстаф", а также оперы Беллини и Вагнера.&nbsp;
Этот театр является одним из самых известных оперных театров Венеции, благодаря той роли, которую он играл в венецианском обществе на протяжении веков. Ранее опера была предназначена только для частных и знатных кругов, привлекая состоятельных людей со всей Италии.&nbsp;&nbsp;Сегодня театр по праву доступен для всех.&nbsp;&nbsp;

<h2>History of Teatro a l'Avogaria</h2>
Founded by Giovanni Poli
Teatro a l'Avogaria was founded in 1969 by Venetian playwright and director Giovanni Poli, who had a vision of creating a space dedicated to experimental and avant-garde theater. Poli was a prominent figure in Italian theater, particularly known for his dedication to the&nbsp;commedia dell'arte, a traditional form of Italian theater characterized by its use of masks, improvisation, and stock characters.
Poli’s decision to establish Teatro a l'Avogaria came from a desire to keep Venetian theater traditions alive while also promoting contemporary theatrical practices. The theater quickly became a center for experimental productions and a hub for young, emerging talent. Poli's work was heavily inspired by Carlo Goldoni, the famous Venetian playwright, whose comedic works are still a staple of the theater’s repertoire today.
A Focus on Theater Education
One of the most significant aspects of Teatro a l'Avogaria is its long-standing connection to theater education. Poli founded an acting school alongside the theater, with the goal of training a new generation of performers in both traditional and contemporary forms of theater. The theater’s acting school remains an important part of its identity, offering courses in acting, directing, and stagecraft.
The school has a reputation for producing talented actors who go on to perform both in Italy and internationally. Many of the theater’s performances feature student actors, giving audiences the chance to see the next generation of Italian talent in action.
A Center for Experimental Theater
Since its founding, Teatro a l'Avogaria has maintained its focus on experimental and avant-garde performances. The theater is known for staging innovative productions that challenge traditional theatrical forms and explore new ways of storytelling. While Venice is famous for its grand opera houses like&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/venice-theatres/teatro-la-fenice/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">La Fenice</a>, Teatro a l'Avogaria provides a more intimate and boundary-pushing alternative, attracting audiences who are interested in cutting-edge theater.
Over the decades, Teatro a l'Avogaria has hosted performances ranging from modern adaptations of classic works to original plays by contemporary playwrights. The theater is also a venue for performance art, multimedia productions, and experimental dance, reflecting its commitment to promoting a wide range of artistic expression.<blockquote><h4><a href="https://www.getyourguide.co.uk/venice-l35/city-cards-tc101/?date_from=2024-11-19&amp;date_to=2024-11-19&amp;partner_id=NWNDQWO&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;cmp=Teatro_a_lAvogaria" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Buy Venice City Cards from €10</a></h4></blockquote><h2>Architecture of Teatro a l'Avogaria</h2>

With a seating capacity of just around 70 people, the theater’s small size ensures that every performance feels personal and immersive.
The Auditorium
The auditorium is simple and functional, with tiered seating that offers excellent sightlines from every seat.

Unlike larger, more formal venues, Teatro a l'Avogaria fosters a close connection between performers and spectators, making every performance a unique and engaging experience.
The theater’s minimalist design reflects its focus on the art of performance rather than on elaborate sets or decorations. This simplicity allows the actors and the script to take center stage, creating an environment where the storytelling is paramount.
A Venue for Experimental Set Design
While the theater itself may be small, it has become known for its innovative use of space and creative set design. Directors and set designers often take advantage of the intimate setting to create immersive, site-specific performances. The flexibility of the space allows for a wide range of staging possibilities, from traditional proscenium setups to more unconventional, experimental configurations that break down the barrier between the audience and the performers.

This article will provide a comprehensive guide to Teatro Verde, covering its history, architecture, significance in Venice’s cultural scene, and essential visitor information.&nbsp;
<h2>History of Teatro Verde</h2>
Origins of Teatro Verde
Teatro Verde was built in 1954, making it a relatively young theater compared to Venice’s centuries-old cultural landmarks. The theater was designed as part of the revitalization of the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, which is home to the historic Benedictine monastery and the famous&nbsp;San Giorgio Maggiore Basilica designed by Andrea Palladio. The goal was to create a space where art, nature, and performance could harmoniously coexist, offering Venetians and visitors alike a place to enjoy cultural events in a scenic outdoor environment.
The name “Teatro Verde,” which translates to “Green Theater,” perfectly reflects the theater’s integration into the natural landscape. The design embraces the surrounding trees, grass, and the backdrop of the Venetian Lagoon, making it one of the most idyllic venues in Venice. Teatro Verde was built to host performances as part of the&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/venice-museums-galleries/palazzo-cini/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Cini Foundation</a>, a cultural institution founded by Vittorio Cini to promote the arts, music, and historical research in Venice.
Since its opening, Teatro Verde has played a key role in Venice’s cultural life, hosting a variety of events including classical music concerts, opera performances, theater productions, and even film screenings. Its location on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore has made it a peaceful retreat from the bustling main island of Venice, offering visitors a unique opportunity to enjoy performances surrounded by nature and history.
Part of the Cini Foundation’s Cultural Mission
Teatro Verde is part of the broader cultural mission of the Cini Foundation, which aims to promote artistic and cultural endeavors in Venice. The foundation, which was established in 1951 by the Italian businessman and philanthropist Vittorio Cini in memory of his son, works to preserve and promote the rich cultural heritage of Venice. The foundation manages numerous buildings and collections on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, including the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.michelangelofoundation.org/en/fondazione-giorgio-cini" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Fondazione Giorgio Cini</a>, which is known for its work in arts education, music, and historical research.
Teatro Verde plays a vital role in the foundation’s mission by providing a space for cultural performances that connect visitors with both Venetian history and contemporary artistic expressions. The theater hosts numerous events throughout the year, including performances during the&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/the-city/annual-events/the-venice-biennale/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Venice Biennale&nbsp;</a>and other&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/the-city/venice-annual-events/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Annual Events</a> that draw international audiences.<blockquote><h4><a href="https://www.getyourguide.com/venice-l35/venice-baroque-opera-concert-ticket-t454453/?partner_id=NWNDQWO&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;cmp=Teatro_verde" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Book Baroque &amp; Opera Concert Tickets</a></h4></blockquote><h2>Architecture of Teatro Verde</h2>
A Theater Embraced by Nature
One of the most unique aspects of Teatro Verde is its open-air design. Unlike the ornate and enclosed theaters that Venice is known for, such as&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/venice-theatres/teatro-la-fenice/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">La Fenice&nbsp;</a>and&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/venice-theatres/teatro-goldoni/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Teatro Goldoni</a>, Teatro Verde is an outdoor venue that fully embraces the beauty of the natural environment. The seating area is built into a gentle slope, with the stage set at the bottom, allowing for excellent sightlines from all parts of the audience. The theater’s design ensures that the surrounding trees, grass, and open sky become part of the performance experience, creating a magical atmosphere that changes with the time of day and the weather.
The architecture of the theater is simple and understated, allowing the natural surroundings to take center stage. The seating area consists of rows of stone benches, with a capacity of around 1,500 spectators. The stage itself is built from wood and blends seamlessly with the landscape, ensuring that the entire venue feels organic and connected to the earth.
The Island Setting: San Giorgio Maggiore
Teatro Verde’s location on the island of&nbsp;San Giorgio Maggiore is one of its most appealing features. The island, which sits just across the water from&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/the-city/geography-of-venice/san-marco/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Piazza San Marco</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/the-best-of-venice/grand-canal/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">The Grand Canal</a>, offers stunning views of Venice and the surrounding lagoon. Visitors to the theater are treated to a breathtaking panorama of the city, with the iconic&nbsp;San Marco Campanile and&nbsp;<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/explore/venice-museums-galleries/doges-palace/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Doge’s Palace&nbsp;</a>visible in the distance.
