Step inside Piccolo Teatro Grassi, one of Milan's most admired theatres and a quiet architectural gem. Admire the restored auditorium, then take your seat for a classic play, ballet or contemporary production.
Full description
Piccolo Teatro Grassi is the original home of Milan's celebrated Piccolo Teatro company, set in a handsome building with a carefully restored auditorium. Its programme mixes classic and contemporary theatre with occasional ballet and opera, so it appeals to visitors interested in Italian stage culture as much as in the architecture itself.
Reviewers single out the beauty of the interior and its sense of history, and there is a cafe on site. Performances are generally in Italian, so check for surtitles or choose a dance or music-led event if your Italian is limited.
