Built in 1873, this lovely theatre is the oldest European theatre in Asia, showing plays from classics to avant-garde. The theatre is nowhere near as big as the new Macao Cultural Centre that hosts most of the stage events now, yet the neo-classical facade and the quaint roof garden give visitors a much stronger sense of intimacy. Only a few locally produced plays and operas are held here now, and it’s run more as a museum, but it’s a real gem of the city.
