Be transported back in time

Quite by chance we were in Faro on the night that there was a free performance, a sort of 'open mike' night with students of the local theatre school. It was a thoroughly charming experience, sitting in one of the tiered boxes, soaking up the...More

Faro Blues Fest --both nights

Wonderful little theatre

Wonderful little theatre, looks a bit run down from the outside but has been successfully restored for ongoing performances on a variety of themes.

Very Beatiful Theater

This theater is a quite small theater but is very beautiful with many golden and wood work, if you have the change go there a concert or a play, it gets very intimate ambiance.

Little gem of a theatre but little used

If you enjoy the theatre or just want to see a bit more of old Faro don't miss a chance to see a production in this little gem. It's like a time capsule; faded but so interesting!! Period must be circa 1890s ?

Lovely intimate theatre.

Went to a concert here. Tickets are cheap and we sat in a box. Very much the original theatre of its time. A shame they don't advertise well al events.

The Lethes Theatre or College of Greater Santiago, is a building originally built in 1605 as a Jesuit College. With the French invasion led by General Junot, the former college facilities were devassadas and desecrated there to host their soldiers. In 1843 the Italian doctor...More
