戈尔多尼剧院是今天仍然存在的最古老的威尼斯剧院。卡罗-哥尔多尼剧院的落成典礼发生在1622年，但它经历了几次扩建、修改，也进行了重建。最初，剧院被命名为圣萨尔瓦多和圣卢卡。剧院仍然位于<a href="https://venicexplorer.com/cs/the-city/geography-of-venice/san-marco" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">圣马可</a>区，从城市的各个地方都可以方便地到达。
1875年，<a href="/zh/%E5%9F%8E%E5%B8%82/%E6%8E%A2%E7%B4%A2%E5%A8%81%E5%B0%BC%E6%96%AF/venice-theatres">戈尔多尼剧院</a>被重新命名，献给威尼斯著名剧作家卡罗-戈尔多尼。戈尔多尼在剧院的首次亮相是在1873年。卡洛-哥尔多尼更新了戏剧艺术，使威尼斯更加伟大。戈尔多尼的文本通常用<a href="/zh/">威尼斯</a>语言写成，涉及与日常生活有关的各种主题。戈尔多尼在他的整个戏剧创作中成功地创造了一个宇宙，改变了欧洲戏剧界的价值观和主题。&nbsp;
卡洛-哥尔多尼剧院是在文德拉明家族的授意下建成的。这个建筑见证了1600年至1800年的特殊戏剧季。该剧院于1979年重建并投入使用。
戈尔多尼剧院是威尼斯戏剧界一个非常富有成效的时期的中心。&nbsp;
今天，它是威尼托稳定剧院（Teatro Stabile del Veneto）的所在地，提供许多戏剧活动。

大芬尼采剧院（Gran Teatro La Fenice）是欧洲最著名的歌剧院之一，位于圣马可区的中心位置。从一开始，它就是威尼斯贵族的T台。一个他们可以发泄只有贵族才能炫耀的浮华和奢华的地方。&nbsp;&nbsp;
1789年11月1日，宣布了一项关于剧院设计和建造的竞赛。经过长时间的辩论，詹南托尼奥-塞尔瓦被选为建筑师。1792年5月16日，剧院正式开业，上演了乔瓦尼-派塞洛（Giovanni Paisiello）根据亚历山德罗-佩波利（Alessandro Pepoli）的剧本创作的歌剧《I Giochi Di d'Agrigento》。
费尼切剧院取代了原来的圣贝内代托剧院，后者在一场火灾中被毁。几个世纪以来，凤凰城经历了许多翻新、扩建和重建。费尼斯这个名字是由剧院的发起人格里马尼家族命名的，以纪念从自己的灰烬中复活的神圣动物。&nbsp;
&nbsp;新剧院立即在这个环礁城市中占据了绝对重要的地位。&nbsp;&nbsp;不幸的是，该剧院在1836年12月被毁，但很快就被托马索和詹巴蒂斯塔-梅杜纳兄弟重建了。
&nbsp;1996年1月29日，剧院再次被一场为拖延维修工作而引发的火灾所摧毁。修复工作已于2003年12月完成。开幕式在共和国总统卡洛-阿泽利奥-钱皮的见证下举行，里卡多-穆蒂为开幕式周开幕。
La Fenice保留了它的意大利广场结构，有独立的木廊。剧院大厅由经过处理的木材制成，以促进声学效果。剧院由剧院大厅、五个阿波罗大厅、观景塔和两个侧翼组成。
今天，凤凰城是充满活力的威尼斯市的一个组成部分。每年的新年音乐会和其他重要活动都在这里举行。该剧院可容纳1000人。我们建议你遵守建议的着装规定。你也可以在网站上找到关于如何买票的指示。&nbsp;
在芬尼采大剧院（Gran Teatro la Fenice）欣赏演出是一种昔日的浪漫体验，如果你去威尼斯，试着在其歌剧院度过一个晚上。

建于1677年的马里布兰剧院，是威尼斯最大和最豪华的剧院之一，位于坎纳雷吉奥。最初，它被称为圣乔瓦尼-克里斯托莫剧院，然后在1835年改为马利布兰剧院。在这里，歌手Maria Garcia Malibran表演了 "La Sonnambula"，没有要求任何补偿。马可-波罗的房子，在1597年被毁，曾经在同一地点。
现在的剧院是1919年和2001年两次翻修的结果。今天，这个剧院有更宽的包厢和一个拉长的画廊，让人想起了它的原始结构。马里布兰每年都会吸引成千上万的意大利观众，可容纳约900人。&nbsp;
马里布兰剧院曾接待过各种艺术家和音乐家，以及最美丽的意大利歌剧。我们记得朱塞佩-威尔第的演出，如《茶花女》、《纳布科》、《特罗瓦托雷》和《法斯塔夫》，以及贝里尼和瓦格纳的歌剧。&nbsp;
这个剧院是威尼斯最著名的歌剧院之一，这要归功于它几个世纪以来在威尼斯社会中发挥的作用。在此之前，歌剧只保留给私人和贵族圈子，吸引着来自意大利各地的富裕人士。&nbsp;&nbsp;今天，剧院理所当然地向所有人开放。&nbsp;&nbsp;

Known for its intimate setting and commitment to experimental theater and contemporary performances, this small but significant venue has a rich history and plays a vital role in promoting new artistic talent in Venice. Teatro a l'Avogaria offers a diverse range of performances, from classic Venetian plays to cutting-edge contemporary works, making it a must-visit for theater lovers and those seeking a unique cultural experience in Venice.
<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>
A Small Theater with a Big Heart
Teatro a l'Avogaria is located in a historic building in the Dorsoduro district of Venice, one of the city’s quieter and more residential areas. The theater’s unassuming exterior may not catch the eye of the casual passerby, but inside, it offers a warm and intimate setting for performances. 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. The stage is small, but this only adds to the sense of intimacy between the actors and the audience. 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.
<h2>Major Performances at Teatro a l'Avogaria</h2>
A Platform for Emerging Talent

The theater also collaborates with young directors, playwrights, and choreographers, giving them the opportunity to experiment with new forms of storytelling and staging. As a result, Teatro a l'Avogaria has become known for its innovative and daring productions, which push the boundaries of traditional theater.
Carlo Goldoni’s Comedies
Given its location in Venice and its founder’s passion for&nbsp;commedia dell'arte, it’s no surprise that Teatro a l'Avogaria regularly stages the works of Carlo Goldoni, one of Venice’s most famous playwrights.

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.

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.
