Pantomimeteatret

The Pantomimeteatret features a mechanical front curtain displaying a peacock motif and presents daily performances of Italian commedia dell'arte tradition.

Architect Vilhelm Dahlerup constructed this theatre in 1874 to replace an existing timber structure, incorporating Chinese architectural elements into the design.

The theatre performances include traditional characters like Harlequin, Columbine, and Pierrot, accompanied by music from composers Strauss and Gounod.

The venue operates throughout summer season within Tivoli Gardens, offering performances that combine music, dance, and theatrical improvisation without spoken dialogue.

Since 2003, the theatre expanded its programming to include contemporary genres while maintaining the tradition of having five people operate the mechanical curtain.
