Teatro Carlos Gomes hosts comedies, dramas, musicals, dance and productions of different styles.

Its interior architecture and role in Centro’s theatre life.

The experience

It has a traditional auditorium with stalls and balconies on Praça Tiradentes’ cultural corridor.

History

It opened in the 19th century under another name and was later renamed to honour Brazilian composer Carlos Gomes. After fires and renovations, it remains an important public theatre.

My tip

It is a good option for more affordable theatre. Check the municipal programme and arrive early to look at the interior.

Opening hours, tickets, programming and visiting conditions may change. Check with the institution before traveling.
