The National Theatre is a theatre located in Belgrade, Serbia.

Founded in the later half of the 19th century, it is located on the Republic Square, at the corner of Vasina and Francuska Street. Built back in 1868, the National Theatre, following the fate of its own people and the country, went through different phases of the architectural and artistic development, surviving as a symbol of Serbian culture, tradition and spirituality. Today, under its roof, there are three artistic ensembles - Opera, Drama and Ballet.

In 1868, the Serbian National Theatre from Novi Sad (then the capital of Serbian culture in Austria-Hungary) performed in Belgrade (then the capital of the Principality of Serbia). Prince Michael, impressed by the performances he experienced, invited Jovan Đorđević (the founder of the Novi Sad Serbian National Theatre) to found a similar institution in Serbia. Having accepted, Jovan Đorđević came to Belgrade with half of his company of actors and founded the National Theatre in Belgrade, seven years after having founded the Novi Sad theatre.

The National Theatre Belgrade was built in 1868 according to the design of Aleksandar Bugarski, the most productive architect of Belgrade in the 19th century. The decision to construct a special building for the theatre was made by Prince of Serbia Mihailo Obrenović. The building was a typical theatre building at the time and was particularly reminiscent of La Scala, Milan, with regard to its Renaissance conception and the decorative finish. Later, reconstructions completely changed the original appearance. The heavy reconstruction was made in 1986 when the theatre regained the 1922 look and an annex was built towards Braće Jugovića Street. Beside theatrical purposes, the hall has been used for charity balls and concerts during the 19th century. The Great Constitutional Assembly adopted the famous 1888 Constitution in...

Hello everyone. I know that maybe a lot of you will read this comment and I really hope that it'll help you. The National Theatre in Belgrade is a place where you can realax and enjoy in Serbia's great drama stories and comedy stories. You can watch some of our most popular actors (and actress) on one place. This is a big place and just big (I mean, cultural, educated and smart) people come here and trully enjoy. I hope you too will enjoy. Goodbye.

Zdravo svima. Znam da će mnogi od vas da pročitaju ovaj komentar i nadam se stvarno da ću vam pomoći. Narodno pozorište u Beogradu je mesto gde možete da se opustite i uživate u velikim srpskim dramskim i komičnim pričama. Možete da gledate neke od naših najpopularnijih glumaca (i glumica) na jednome mestu. Ovo je veliko mesto i samo veliki (pod tim mislim, kulturni, obrazovani i pametni) ljudi dolaze ovde i istinski uživaju. Nadam se da ćete i vi...

Народно позориште у Београду је позориште у Београду које се налази на Тргу републике, на углу Васине и Француске улице, у самом центру града. Основано је 1868. године, а у садашњу зграду, на месту тадашње Стамбол капије, уселило се 1869. године. У оквиру њега функционишу уметничке јединице Опера, Балет и Драма, а представе се одигравају на Великој сцени и Сцени „Раша Плаовић”. Данас представља једну од најрепрезентативнијих и најзначајнијих културних институција Србије. Године 1900. у новосадском листу Позориште се ово позориште назива Краљевско српско народно позориште у Београду. Данас, након периода комунизма, у имену позоришта се не помиње краљ нити српско име. Заправо, једноставан назив "Народно позориште" је коришћен и пре рата. године догодило се друго гостовање Српског народног позоришта из Новог Сада у Београду. Тада кнез Михаило Обреновић, одушевљен новосадским глумцима, доноси историјску одлуку о градњи новог и сталног здања београдског театра. У договору са Државним саветом 12. марта 1868. кнез Михаило је одлучио да се позоришна зграда подигне на државном, раније турском земљишту код Стамбол капије, где је истог дана почело рушење турских кућа на том терену. Посебна симболика одабира локације за њено подизање додатно је наглашена уграђивањем делова порушене Стамбол капије у темеље позоришног здања. Ова брзина говори о одлучности да Београд добије сталну позоришну установу. Кнез је захтевао да зграда буде завршена до 15. октобра исте године. О значају који је подизање овог објекта имало у свести српског народа говори и то да је читав трг испред грађевине добио име Позоришни трг, преузимајући од некадашње Велике пијаце (данас Студентског трга) значење главног београдског трга. Народно позориште замишљено је и реализовано као репрезентативна грађевина на којој је аутор показао високо познавање принципа тада владајућег академизма. Односом маса, хоризонталном и вертикалном поделом фасада, као и одабиром грађевинских и декоративних елемената, општи изглед здања упућивао је на сличности са чувеним миланским позориштем La Scala, које је саграђено двадесетак година раније. Нарочиту пажњу архитекта Бугарски посветио је обликовању фасаде оријентисане према тргу. Средишњи ризалит главне фасаде завршен је троугаоним тимпаноном у зони крова, док је хоризонтална подела остварена истакнутим подеоним венцима. У приземљу се истицао трем, изнад којег је, у висини првог спрата, била тераса са декоративно решеном оградом.

Кнез је позвао Јована Ђорђевића да и у Србији оснује стално позориште. Прихватајући позив као част и изазов, управник са собом одводи и половину новосадског ансамбла и седам година после...

Although it is one of the oldest theaters in the centre capital of Serbia, it is necessary to arrange shabby rugs and carpets, seats and chairs. The untruths that you get when you buy tickets, that there are no tickets, later it turns out that this is not the case. Many seats remain empty because tickets are kept for individual actors, city or state rulers, I’m not sure. You are not allowed to move and empty spaces remain throughout the evening. The hostess girls are reluctant to be up to them, the managers also refuse to meet you.The seats in the II and III galleries are so uncomfortable that you can't see even half of the stage if you are sitting. Of course, they convince you that there are no tickets. That needs to be checked. So stay 3.4 hours (as long as the show lasts.) And look at the empty seats all evening. That is unacceptable.

This theatre has a big problem when they have a play and its entrance , I dont see myself stuck between people so we can wait 20 minutes so we can sit , genuinely seats were pretty nice , its better to check them out on their website , we booked our tickets in advance but overall experience we enjoyed play called ,,Ribarske Svadje” , hole play is on half italian half serbian but u get the idea of comedy , like actors 10/10 they even broke the role when they all started laughing for few minutes . So if you visit belgrade this is must -Experience - btw recording is forbiden so i apologize for this small goofy clip that i made :D
