Interior view of the Corral de comedias de Alcalá de Henares
Corral de Comedias de Alcalá de Henares is a corral de comedias in Alcalá de Henares, Spain. It is one of the oldest preserved theatres in Europe. The venue has been used in various ways, being an open-air theater in the 17th century, coliseum from 1769, teatro romántico in the 19th century, and a cinema in the early 20th century. These variations in use led to major changes in the building's architecture.[1] Built in 1601-02 and designed to mirror the Corral de la Cruz, the architect was Francisco Sánchez.[2] The corral seats 200 people and is administered by the Fundación Teatro La Abadía.
