Teatro delle Dame, Baroque theatre in central Rome, Italy
The Teatro delle Dame featured seven tiers of seating and incorporated advanced acoustic engineering through its phonetic curve interior design from 1720.
Constructed by Antonio D'Alibert under Francesco Galli Bibiena's supervision, the theatre opened in 1718 as Rome's largest performance venue with 1,400 seats.
The venue alternated between opera performances and public entertainment until 1847, when Prince Alessandro Torlonia expanded the stage for equestrian shows.
Located at the intersection of Via D'Alibert and Via Margutta, the theatre maintained its position as one of Rome's principal opera houses through the 18th century.
The Knights of Malta managed this wooden theatre until the 19th century, following its acquisition by a consortium of Roman nobility in 1726.
