Mari Jászai Theatre

The Mari Jászai Theatre is a cultural venue in Tatabánya that houses multiple performance spaces for theatre, music, and community events. The building features modern stage equipment and is run by the city's administration.

The theatre opened in 1917 during a period when Tatabánya was expanding its cultural institutions and becoming a centre for the performing arts. It has remained a key venue for regional artistic development since its founding.

The theatre serves as a venue where Hungarian drama and contemporary works reach local audiences, while the building itself functions as a gathering place for community events. The stage reflects regional artistic interests and provides opportunities for both established and emerging performers.

Visitors should check the event schedule beforehand, as performances vary and the theatre may be closed between shows. The building is centrally located in Tatabánya and easily accessible, with parking available nearby.

The theatre is named after Mari Jászai, a prominent Hungarian actress whose name honours the artistic tradition of the building. This naming reflects how central performing arts were to Tatabánya's identity.
