Being the only major theater in the city makes it the default choice for any big play to take place in. On the bright side, you only need to check one calendar for all the plays. If you also want an authentic old theater atmosphere you're in luck. The seats haven't been changed in at least two decades and are probably older than that.

Depending on the show, I guess makes or brakes a place of entertainment, but the venue itself is very good and very well kept to catch a show alone or with that special someone/ friends.

Wonderful experience.,,Oedip king " was a very good play, a different vision.We were actors too, we were in the middle of action.Perfect evening!

The security is not nice with you. All is dirty and mudy and they dont even clean it if the security sees you are drinking something they will just force you to give them what you drinked for exemple i drinked some water and the security just got the bottle off my hands and throw it at trash! This is unbeliveble!

One of the best theatres in Romania with a long tradition. Offers a wide number of spectacles put in scene by some of the finest artists there are. On a monthly basis it host events such as fairs, gaudeamus book festival, movie festivals, conferences, etc.

Amazing building, well maintained.

"Marin Sorescu" National Theatre (TNC) is maybe the only modern building in the entire city of Craiova in terms of architecture innovation. Alexandru Iotzu created a modern design (brutalist) for the building which had to foster the theatre. The functional plan of the building is impeccable with almost no mistake. The lobbies are perfectly sized and well executed. The big theatre hall has a balcony at +6 meters height and even the secondary theatre room has its lobby and relaxation spaces for people. The surrounding public space was very well designed too. The only bad thing is the theatre's park which was transformed in 2014 in an underground parking. The design firm who managed the parking area did a very bad job, managing to break almost every architectural detail of that space.

It is the cultural epicenter of Craiova, a lot of marvelous plays took place here, many great actors have taken the stages of "Marin Sorescu" Theater and a lot of people fell in love with theater inside this marvelous place.

One of the greatest building in Craiova hosts events, conferences, fairs and exhibitions and is the place to watch the best theatre in town. A real gem.

Superb!
