Teatro Lara

4.5 ·

Settle into Teatro Lara, a gilded Italianate playhouse tucked away in central Madrid. Take a seat in its four-tier auditorium and watch a contemporary play or concert staged just metres from where you sit.

📖

Full description

Teatro Lara is a compact, old-fashioned playhouse in the Centro district, built in the Italianate style with an ornate interior rising over four levels. Its programme leans toward contemporary, trendy plays and concerts, performed in Spanish, and the tight auditorium means even front-row seats put you within a metre or so of the actors.

Reviewers describe the worn, characterful decor as part of the appeal, and ticket prices are considered affordable for a central venue. Performances run mostly in the evening, making it a natural choice for a couple's night out.

Closed on Mondays.

Reviews

Small beautiful theatre. I was at first row and the actors were 1m away from me. My Spanish is quite good but still could not understand everything as the play was quite dynamic and actors talked very quickly. Nevertheless, I did enjoy it, and had enough understanding to have fun! 🤩
