Crevalcore Theatre Season
The prose review of the Municipality of Crevalcore at the Primo Maggio Auditorium
About Crevalcore Theatre Season
A season of prose in the heart of the Bolognese Plain
The Crevalcore Theatre Season is the main live performance review of the Municipality of Crevalcore, a center in the Emilian plain in the province of Bologna. Every year, between January and March, the municipal administration builds a program that brings leading actors, directors, and musicians of the national scene to the area, confirming the theatre as a space for community encounter and reflection.
The Primo Maggio Auditorium, provisional home of the Municipal Theatre
The performances are held at the Primo Maggio Auditorium, in Viale Caduti di Via Fani 300, the provisional venue hosting the season while awaiting the restoration of the historic Crevalcore Municipal Theatre. The space welcomes the public for evening events, usually starting at 9:00 PM, in an intimate atmosphere that enhances the relationship between stage and audience.
"Contemporaneously Classic": the theme of the 2026 edition
The 2026 edition is titled "Contemporaneamente classico" (Contemporaneously Classic): a journey that dialogues between past texts and present urgencies. From Brechtian reinterpretations to the satire of Dario Fo, from investigations into the 20th century to music that becomes narrative, the program alternates major playwrights and performers capable of speaking to today starting from the classics.
A cultural project for the territory
The review is curated by the Cultural Services Area of the Municipality of Crevalcore and is part of the theatre circuit of Emilia-Romagna and the metropolitan area of Bologna. Alongside the evening performances, the season aims for a broad audience thanks to an accessible pricing policy, with discounts for young people, the elderly, and companions of people with disabilities.
Why it's worth it
- A program featuring well-known names from Italian theatre, cinema, and music.
- Performances that reinterpret classics in a contemporary and civic key.
- An audience-friendly venue in the center of Crevalcore.
- Tickets and season tickets with reduced rates for various categories.
For those living in the Bolognese Plain and for theatre enthusiasts in Emilia-Romagna, the Crevalcore Theatre Season is a winter event not to be missed.
