in the city center. It opened in 1864 and has been damaged both by fires and earthquakes over the years, but it is still going strong. The program consists mostly of theater and musical theater productions.
Teatro Augusteo, Piazzetta Duca d’Aosta (tel: 081 414 243; website: www.teatroaugusteo.it) also has a city center location. It hosts dramatic plays, musicals and musical theater as well as popular and classical music concerts. The
Sannazzaro Theater, Via Chiaia 157 (tel: 081 411 723) stages popular theater in both senses of the word. The plays are about ordinary people and often in dialect, and lots of people come to see them.
