Teatro Fígaro-Adolfo Marsillach

The Teatro Fígaro-Adolfo Marsillach provides the best in modern national and international comedy. Located in the district of Embajadores, near Lavapiés and the Barrio de Las Letras, this theatre can seat close to 650 people in the audience.

The Teatro Fígaro building was designed by architect Felipe López Delgado, who opted to follow the rationalist style. Originally, the building was designed exclusively for film projections, although over the course of its construction, a decision was made to adapt it for theatre performances and set up a small stage, which has been expanded over the years. It first opened in November of 1931, and the design earned Felipe López Delgado the second medal of the 1932 National Fine Arts Exposition.

For over eight years now, it has been a stalwart of the Madrid theatre scene. Fans of comedy theatre will find its programme filled with leading contemporary and laid-back comedy productions.
