Theaters in Peru

Peru has a vibrant theater scene, and you surely will find something for your taste. There are many theaters presenting not only classic theater but also cultural presentations, modern theater, experimental theater, dramas, dance performances, theater for children and not to forget shows and plays in many small theater bars. Most presentations are in Spanish, but don’t worry, even if your language skills aren’t perfect, it’s Art – you’ll understand.

It’s always difficult to judge over cultural institutions and tell you which one is the best. All theaters, big or small work very hard, have brilliant actors and present magnificent performances and plays that promise a nice and entertaining afternoon or evening.
