The information available leads us to believe that the Centrale Theatre dates from the early nineteenth century, where it was born as the private theater of the Celsi family. More definitively, the structure was opened to the public between 1925 and 1930, after the demolition of the old Capitol Cinema and it’s reconstruction as Centrale Theatre. Numerous famous actors and singers have performed here, the likes of Aldo Fabrizi, Fiorenzo Fiorentini, Ettore Petrolini, Carmelo Bene, Gigi Proietti, Pupella Maggio, Paolo Conte and many more ...
In the 70's, it regularly hosted concerts and important recording sessions such as Renato Zero’s first live album "No Mamma No " in 1976. During this period the Centrale Theatre was also the site of political meetings of the prominent Radical Party movement, and was the fulcrum of conferences and debates that go back to it’s days of being a cinema, after which it remained closed for approximately a decade. The Teatro Centrale Carlsberg was re opened on the 29th of January 2003. The renovation work took two years to complete, and finally after it’s uncertain past caught between being a cinema and a theater, the Centrale found its true path: the Teatro Centrale Carlsberg where art and cuisine come together in harmony.
