Catch a play at Teatro Español, the elegant theatre overlooking Plaza de Santa Ana. Settle into its tiered hall for a classic or contemporary production, then step out into one of Madrid's liveliest squares.

📖

Full description

Teatro Español stands on Plaza de Santa Ana in the old centre of Madrid and presents a programme of both classic and contemporary theatre. Reviewers call the hall elegant and full of character, and note that the upper tiers sit a fair way from the stage, though the sound still carries well.

Productions are in Spanish, so it suits culture-focused visitors comfortable with the language, and a performance usually runs around two hours. The square outside offers cafes and terraces for before or after the show.

Reviews

Teatro Espeñol is a gorgeous, iconic theatre in old Centro of Msdrid. It majestically dominates the active Plaza Santa Ana. The theatre has many great performances in it, which are worth attending for no other reason than to see the theatre itself.
