01 / Building stories
The theatre began in the nineteenth century and has evolved over time. Its programme continues to connect the city, offering a way to encounter its present.
Notice the waiting space at the entrance: before and after a performance, the same building takes on different rhythms.
Check programmes and tickets; outside events, view from the street rather than entering rehearsals or service areas.
