Theaters Santo Domingo

Located on Máximo Gómez Avenue, the Dominican National Theater is the melting pot of the country's living arts. The building, whose construction was decided by President Joaquín Balaguer in 1970 (it was the architect Teófilo Carbonel who took charge and inaugurated the site three years later), is imposing. Although the majority of the performances offered are local, all the performing arts are represented: dance, music, theater and opera. Ask for the program!

Microteatro Santo Domingo is a unique theatrical concept: 15-minute plays written by Dominican actors about Dominican life, culture, love and local relationships. The plays are performed in an intimate and sometimes interactive space, often with just you and a dozen other spectators. In the courtyard of the beautiful colonial building, in the open air, you can also eat and drink: what a great way to spend an evening with friends.
