Small historic theatre in Laurino created in the late 18th century from the church of an old Augustinian convent.

The Teatro Comunale (Municipal Theatre) of Laurino was born from the conversion of the church of the old Augustinian convent, founded in the 14th century at the wish of the Sanseverino family. Towards the end of the 18th century the building was turned into a theatre, a function it has kept to this day through restorations in 1855, 1934 and 1978.We like its intimate scale: just under two hundred seats between the stalls and a two-level gallery, a true gem of 18th-century architecture in the heart of the Cilento Park. We suggest checking the programme and combining a show with a stroll through the historic centre of Laurino, rich in palaces and chapels.
