Dom Pedro V Theatre

All text from the Macau Government Cultural Institute Heritage.Net

Dom Pedro V Theatre was built in 1860. In 1873, the main façade of the building was renovated adopting a more neo-classical touch, including pilasters and a pediment on the main façade.

The theatre was left unused for almost twenty years because of termite problems but resumed operations after extensive restoration work carried out in 1993.


Dom Pedro V Theatre, built in 1860, is located on St. Augustine’s Square. The style is neo-classical in essence. The floor plan of the theatre has a lobby area, a small ballroom, and a circular auditorium with a stage and long corridors on both sides.

There is a flight of stairs leading from the side corridors to the first floor where ten pillars in the auditorium area support a crescent-shaped balcony.

The arches of the main façade are 6 metres high and 3 metres wide. The pediment and 8 pilasters of the main façade are simply decorated.

The building is painted pale green, with matching dark green doors, windows and red roof tiles.
