Stagione teatrale del Teatro Morlacchi
Great drama and dance in the historic theatre of Perugia
About Stagione Teatro Morlacchi
The historic theatre of Perugia
The Teatro Morlacchi, an 18th-century jewel in the heart of Perugia, is the main venue for the drama and dance season of the Teatro Stabile dell'Umbria. Every year, the programme brings the best of Italian and international theatre to the city, alternating great classics, civil theatre, new dramaturgy, and dance performances.
A prestigious programme
The season offers nationally acclaimed productions, world premieres, and regional exclusives, featuring leading directors and performers from the Italian scene. Alongside drama, a section dedicated to dance enriches the programme, while the Ridotto space hosts more intimate and experimental productions.
A theatre for everyone
Under the guidance of the Teatro Stabile dell'Umbria, the Morlacchi season pursues the idea of "a theatre for everyone", with a focus on accessibility (performances with audio description) and support for the Umbrian theatre scene, promoting regional directors and actors alongside major national names. For Perugia and for Umbria, it is a cultural institution with a long tradition.
