Built between 1826 and 1831, designed by the architect Carlo Barabino, this theater is an example of traditional Italian horseshoe-shaped development. It has a capacity of 2,000. It was badly damaged by bombing in the Second World War, and almost completely rebuilt at the beginning of the 1990's by the architects I. Gardella and A. Rossi. The original neo-classical features of the pronaus and the portico were incorporated into the new building, whose imposing triangular tower hides a sophisticated scenic mechanism which places this theatre among the most advanced in Italy.
In the heart of the historic center, this was the first multi-room theatre which was built, thanks to the contributions of the Genoan Council.

There is also the Dino Campana hall which seats 237 people, is comfortable and has excellent visibility.
