Theatre of Nice

Founded in just 1989, the Theatre of Nice is a fairly modern attraction, but at the same time one that has already garnered considerable fame around the world as a theatre dedicated to the promotion of contemporary art. In addition to the operas, plays, films, and exhibitions held there, the Theatre itself is famous for its magnificent architecture; a white marble façade houses two immense octagonal halls, one constructed in the Italian style with mezzanines and balconies providing up to 900 places, and a smaller amphitheatre for more intimate affairs.
