Théâtre Royal de Namur, Neoclassical theater in Namur, Belgium
The Royal Theater of Namur features a yellow limestone facade with Doric columns and niches containing statues representing Music and Comedy.
The current building, designed by architect Thierry Fumière, opened in 1863 following previous constructions and underwent complete restoration between 1994 and 1998.
Each season presents sixty performances including theater, dance, circus, concerts, and children's shows, with regular directors like James Thierrée and Wajdi Mouawad.
The horseshoe-shaped main hall contains four balconies arranged in successive tiers, with an orchestra pit accommodating up to sixty musicians.
The ceiling displays a trompe-l'oeil sky design, paying tribute to early Italian Renaissance theaters that performed in open spaces.
