My wife and I recently attended the Rosso e il Nero ballet at the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, and it was a truly unforgettable evening. From the moment we stepped inside, we were struck by the theater’s blend of historic elegance and artistic grandeur.

The theater itself has a fascinating history, originally inaugurated in 1880 under the name Teatro Costanzi. Its neoclassical architecture, with lavish decorations and rich detailing, reflects the opulence of late 19th-century design. The theater has retained its majestic style while modernizing for today’s performances. The beautiful crystal chandelier and red velvet seats add a sense of old-world charm, making the experience feel like stepping back in time.

The acoustics here are exceptional, and the ambiance only enhances the power of the performance. Watching Rosso e il Nero in such a setting was captivating. The orchestra was impeccable, bringing Tchaikovsky’s music to life with depth and emotion, while the dancers moved with precision and passion that left us in awe.

If you’re considering a visit, I recommend arriving early to take in the architecture and elegance of the space. The staff is attentive, and there’s a small bar where you can enjoy a pre-show drink in the grand foyer. Whether you’re a fan of ballet, opera, or just historical theaters, the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma is a must-visit experience that will leave you with beautiful memories of Rome’s artistic heritage.

A perfect place for an extraordinary night out!

Beautiful building, and very elite environment. The balcony seats are good only if you are sitting in the first line, otherwise too tight and can't see the scene properly.

Claudio Sgura was fantastic. But it's definitely not a must visit. Overpriced by much (I was at several operas in Europe). In total, nothing special..
