Teatrul Nottara, Professional theatre on Magheru Boulevard, Bucharest, Romania
Teatrul Nottara is a theatre on Gheorghe Magheru Boulevard in Bucharest, with two separate performance spaces: the main Horia Lovinescu stage and the smaller George Constantin studio. The two halls differ in size and are set up for different types of productions.
The theatre was founded in the second half of the 20th century as a permanent cultural institution in Bucharest and has gone through several artistic periods since then. Over the decades it has kept its place as a steady address in the city's theatrical life.
The Teatrul Nottara stages both Romanian and international plays across its two halls, giving audiences a chance to see local writers alongside foreign dramatists. The smaller studio space creates a very direct relationship between the actors on stage and the people watching.
Tickets are available at the box office or in advance online, and booking early is a good idea for popular shows. The building sits on Boulevard Magheru, one of the central streets in Bucharest, so it is easy to reach on foot from many parts of the city centre.
The theatre runs a programme called Dialoguri fara maska in which actors talk openly about their work and personal experiences directly with the audience. These sessions take place on stage but are not part of a regular show, making them a format of their own.
