Teatro Villa-Lobos

Classic Carioca arts space

This venue closed on September 2011

Tucked in the lee of the tunnel on Copacabana's busy Avenida Princesa Isabel, the narrow, modern 1960s façade hides one main stage showing a variety of performances (though more often than not modern revisits of old classics) and two further rooms currently undergoing a refit. Children's theatre and dance performances are also frequently put on at the weekends, but the Friday night show is the one that causes the roadblocks.

A fire in September 2011 destroyed all four floors of the building, and the theatre is currently closed until further notice.
