Casinoteatern

Casinoteatern was a theater building in Stockholm's Norrmalm district, designed in 1904 by architect Erik Otto Ulrich and originally created for the Templar Order community. The building later housed various stage programs and developed into an established theater with regular performances.

The building was constructed in 1904 for a Templar community and initially operated as a cinema before being converted into a theater in 1920. This transformation marked the beginning of its career as a live performance venue that would host shows for several decades.

The venue became known for its revue performances, which provided entertainment designed for general audiences and shaped Stockholm's theater culture during the mid-20th century. These shows drew people who enjoyed lighter, accessible theatrical formats.

The venue was located at Bryggargatan 5 in the Norrmalm district and was easily accessible as a central cultural location in Stockholm. This position made it a popular gathering place for people seeking theater and revue entertainment.

The building was demolished in 1964 to make way for an extension of the Postgiro building, removing one of Stockholm's established theater venues from the city. This demolition marked the end of an era of entertainment culture in that location.
