Exactly what you would expect of a theater in Napoli-grumpy staff, poor ventilation, dusty red velvet. Good acoustics. Stage looked like that of an old theatre but had an ugly metal barrier that felt very out of place at a seated venue. Box office people were really mean and made fun of my poor Italian grammar. The gig I saw here was fantastic and had great energy, which made up for the venue being less than lovely. Located near the main square (Plebiscito), which is also convenient, because by the end of a concert here you will be so overheated/dehydrated that you'll want to dump an Italian ice on your face. read more

Teatro Augusteo - Morrissey in Napoli - Performing Arts Near Me - Naples, NA

Mid-sized theatre that's kind of pretty, but looks a bit dated without looking classic. The sound is superb, at least for a rock band... very thick and transparent. Excellent speaker placement, both aurally and visually. Everyone standing at the front of the stage had a great view. Most of the staff I interacted with here were pretty nice, especially the older guy at the cash register downstairs. And here's what I didn't like... Bad air conditioning. It was uncomfortably hot in the audience, even in the front row... I imagine it was much worse for people deeper in the crowd, surrounded by the body heat of other audience-members. And they don't take credit card... Or at least they weren't last night. The whole system to buy drinks was annoying to me... Go to the basement... Go to a cashier... Buy a ticket... Bring the ticket to the bar. But the cashier was really nice. read more
