Teatro del Rondò di Bacco, Historic theatre in Palazzo Pitti, Florence, Italy
The Teatro del Rondo di Bacco features a long, narrow hall with seating for approximately one hundred spectators within Palazzo Pitti's walls.
The theatre was constructed between 1783 and 1799 under the direction of architect Niccolo Gaspero Maria Paoletti during the reign of Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo.
During the 1970s and early 1980s, the venue welcomed numerous European experimental theatre companies, including the Living Theatre and Peter Schumann's Bread and Puppet.
The theatre currently operates under superintendence supervision and primarily hosts institutional presentations and small conferences rather than public performances.
The theatre's name originates from the nearby Boboli Garden entrance fountain depicting Nano Morgante, also known as 'Bacchino'.
