Teatro Opera, Art Deco theater on Corrientes Avenue, Buenos Aires, Argentina
The Teatro Opera features an Art Deco facade designed by architect Alberto Bourdon in 1935, with a total capacity of 2500 seats across multiple levels.
Opening in 1872 with Il Trovatore, this venue pioneered gas lighting technology in Buenos Aires theaters and later incorporated an electric power plant in 1889.
The theater transformed into a multipurpose venue in 1997 to accommodate major Broadway productions and West End musicals, altering its original interior configuration.
Located 200 meters from the Obelisk at 860 Avenida Corrientes, the theater maintains regular performance schedules and offers different seating price categories.
International performers including Ava Gardner, Édith Piaf, and Mercedes Sosa have graced this stage, while Astor Piazzolla delivered his final performance here in 1989.
