Madrid's musical theater venue par excellence, this is where you'll see the most spectacular productions of shows like Les Miserables, Chicago, and Jekyll & Hyde. It also stages comedies and dance. It stands on the same site as the original Teatro Apolo, which lasted from 1873 until 1929, showing a mixture of drama and zarzuela (Spanish opera). The new Apolo holds up to 1300 spectators and you'll find it close to El Rastro, the popular Sunday flea market.
