Teatro João Caetano, Neoclassical theater in Centro, Niterói, Brazil
The Teatro João Caetano features a grand façade with intricate details, housing a main auditorium that accommodates 400 spectators across its multiple levels.
Established in 1842 as Teatro Santa Tereza, the theater changed its name in 1900 to honor João Caetano, a notable Brazilian actor and director.
The theater stands as a center for performing arts in Niterói, presenting theatrical productions, ballet performances, and musical concerts throughout the year.
Located at Rua XV de Novembro 35, the theater includes the Sala Carlos Couto for multimedia events and the Salão Nobre for smaller performances.
The stage curtain was designed by Roberto Burle Marx, while Thomas Driendl created the interior paintings that decorate the theater's spaces.
