Very nice theater in quite a good state for the age. Nice to see it's partially reconstructed for visits and concerts. Could use some attention with cleaning and signs/information. Also, please take the little time to organize after a concert, bit unprofessional to leave all stuff in the hallways etc.

This is the oldest theatre in Catania and was built by the Romans in the first century CE over a pre-existing Greek building. Full price tickets were €7 per person, but they have discounts for students, military & senior citizens. It was very cool to see the variety of construction mediums used, from lava rock to stone to marble.

It's a nice historical place to visit, although I feel the entry fee is a bit too much. 7 € for entry to a place which is not very big is a bit too much.

Definitely, DEFINITELY recommend visiting! Very beautiful, interesting place! On an ordinary street in Catania, behind the apartment buildings, such beauty is hidden in the yard! Not big, but worth a look!

Mixed Greek and Roman theater. Partially restored. Lots of stairs. Very little information about the history of the place, and you had better read Italian if you want to know anything that is on the placards. Much of it was roped off during our visit. Still in use for performances.
