How much you enjoy the teatro nacional will depend on your expectation. Panama City does not have a fine arts culture, not yet. There is no better illustration of this than its national theater having walls poorly wallpapered to look like pink marble. There is no orchestra pit. I assume the music for its upcoming production of Swan Lake will be electronically pumped through speakers? I could go on, but there is also a lot of good here. The performance of Cristo Quijote Tratado was excellent. The people working at the theater were kind to me even though I struggle with Spanish and often have to use my phone to translate. I am very glad that I visited here and I encourage you to do the same if there is a performance happening that you are interested in. Just keep in mind that this is not Theatre national de Chaillot or the Royal...

National theater. Located in the Casco Viejo, Wao what a great job on all renovations. You enter the building and can feel the history. The latest renovations/ reconstructions and updates are overwhelming. Keep the past alive and update the rest. Built originally in 1673 Yes 1673, at that time it was a convent , and much later transformed to the theater witch took over 5 years to build. The frescos on the cupula that represent panamenian history are amazing, and well worth observing . A must when in the "casco viejo area" ( old panama) . And getting in a good show at the theater...

The National Theater of Panama (Del Teatro Nacional De Panama) is still under renovation, just like the many vintage buildings in the neighborhood. Apparently, the government is trying it's best to lead in renovating this part of town while encouraging others to do likewise. Within a block or two, almost every antique architecture is under minor or major facelift, even the roads are being...

Histórico lugar hermoso... Adicional historia El Teatro Nacional de Panamá se encuentra ubicado en el casco antiguo de la ciudad de Panamá, a un costado de la iglesia de San Francisco y diagonal a la plaza Bolívar. Su construcción fue ordenada mediante ley 52 de 1904. El Teatro Nacional ocupa, junto con el Palacio Nacional, el solar perteneciente en la época colonial a las monjas de la Concepción. El teatro fue concebido por el arquitecto italiano Genaro Ruggieri, con un estilo de teatro de opereta italiano, e inaugurado el 1 de octubre de 1908. Esta inauguración coincidió con la toma de posesión de José Domingo de Obaldía, segundo presidente de la República de Panamá. Su apertura artística, sin embargo, no se dio sino semanas más tarde con el estreno de la ópera Aida, a cargo de la Compañía de Ópera Lombardi, que llegó con todo su elenco en el vapor Parismina procedente de Guatemala, después de haber actuado en varios teatros del mundo.Se empezó a construir en 1898
