Teatr Stary

Teatr Stary is a classical theatre building in central Lublin that operates multiple performance spaces for different types of productions. The structure contains a main stage and a smaller chamber stage, each hosting regular shows throughout the year.

The theatre was founded in 1781 when Mateusz Witkowski received permission from the Krakow magistrate to stage comedies for a monthly fee. From this modest beginning, the venue grew into the theatre that continues to operate in the same location today.

The venue stages Polish classics and contemporary works that take audiences into different worlds with each performance. This blend of tradition and contemporary pieces makes it a living place for theatre.

The theatre sits in the heart of Lublin and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors can purchase tickets at the box office, and the building offers accessibility features and support for people with mobility needs.

The house has collaborated with European cultural organizations since 2021 and takes part in international arts projects. These partnerships bring visiting productions from other countries and fresh perspectives to its stages.
