Reopening of Teatro Nacional D. Maria II

Overview

The Teatro Nacional D. Maria II in Lisbon is preparing to reopen its Rossio building for a new season, marking the institution’s 180th anniversary. The reopening follows extensive renovations funded by the Recovery and Resilience Plan, which had caused delays since the theater closed in early 2023.

To celebrate the return, the theater will host a three-day event from September 18 to 20, featuring exhibitions, DJ sets, and videomapping on the facade. The season’s headline production is William Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth,’ directed and translated by artistic director Pedro Penim. This specific play holds historical weight, as it was the production being performed during a fire that destroyed the theater in 1964. The production is scheduled to run in the Sala Garrett through October 31.
