Teatro 1887

4.8(256 reviews)

About

Choose Teatro 1887 for local business in Costa Rica, a venue on Av. 3 in San José, within the El Carmen district and the 10101 postal area. It is a theatre, and its programme and setting reflect that role rather than a general entertainment venue.

Teatro 1887 operates as a theatre and carries a 4.8 out of 5 average from 256 reviews, a tally that suggests regular audiences rather than one-off visits. Its website, https://si.cultura.cr/infraestructura/teatro-1887-de-la-compania-nacional-de-teatro, gives the venue's official online presence. Two photos accompany the listing.

First-time visitors should expect a performance space in the capital rather than a beachside attraction, so an evening there pairs naturally with time spent in San José. Costa Rica's Pacific coast has a marked dry season while the Caribbean side stays wet for much of the year, which shapes when travel between regions is easiest. Reaching San José from the coastal resorts and towns is part of any island itinerary, and the city sits at the centre of the road network.

A casado, the set lunch of rice, beans, plantain, salad and a choice of meat or fish, is the everyday meal to look for. Green and leatherback turtles nest on the Caribbean beaches, and olive ridleys gather at Ostional in mass nestings. Inland, Arenal, Poás and Irazú are active volcanoes, and Cerro Chirripó is the highest peak.
