Gavella Drama Theatre, Performing arts center in Andrija Medulić Neighborhood, Zagreb, Croatia.
Gavella Drama Theatre is a performance venue in Zagreb's Donji Grad district equipped with contemporary infrastructure to host diverse theatrical productions. The space provides comfortable seating and professional technical facilities for its year-round schedule of shows.
The theatre was founded in 1953 by converting the former Helios cinema, a building originally created by Croatian industrialist Adolf Müller. This transformation of an existing structure into a new performance space launched its ongoing role in Zagreb's artistic community.
The theatre presents a mix of classical and contemporary plays that shape Zagreb's artistic conversation. You will notice how productions here explore different aspects of human experience through dramatic storytelling.
The venue is located on Frankopanska Street in the Donji Grad district with straightforward access. Plan to arrive with time before your chosen performance and check which productions are scheduled during your visit.
The theatre organizes annual Gavella Evenings, a festival that showcases selected highlights from the previous season. This event gives visitors a chance to experience some of the best work the company has created over the past year.
