Map

Born at the beginning of the past century as a small parish hall and closed during the II World War, the theatre re-opened at the end of the ‘50s with a bigger auditorium, provided with comfortable metal and wood seats, now exhibited in the foyer. Vernacular companies of San Frediano quarter found a place to perform at the “Cestello”. It was devastated with the ’66 flood and has remained closed for about 20 years. In 1985, it re-opened thanks to Vittorio Nardini and, since then, the theatre became more and more popular.
