Theatre Antique d'Orange

The Roman Theatre of Orange is an authentic beauty and is in excellent condition. The walls measure 103 meters in length and 37m height. In 1869 the theater became the seat of an annual summer festival. Until 1969 plays were performed here, alternating with musicals, operas and symphonies. After that date, the Orange became exclusively for opera festivals and plays were performed in Avignon. In the pictures you can see an orchestral rehearsal. There are also pictures of the backstage area.
