Theatre of Peru

Auditorium of the Grand National Theatre.

Theatre in Peru has been developed since the 18th century. During this period, the most emblematic theatres of the city of Lima arose, such as the Teatro Principal (today the Segura), the Olímpico and Politeama (now disappeared); which were popular means of shows compared to bullfighting.[1][2] As of 2019, theatre is most consumed in Lima, with 965 thousand people who resorted to this type of recreation, while in Tacna a higher percentage (23.2%) of its inhabitants attend events.[3] In 2022, the performing arts involved 250 thousand people.[4]

There are a series of works that were published locally, the first known style is the "harmonic comedy", at the request of the viceroys of the time.[2][5] It was highly popular in viceregal times.[6]

Years later, other creations focused on dramatic life stood out. The pioneering writers Felipe Pardo y Aliaga and Manuel Ascencio Segura[2][5][7][8][9] stand out, who marked the national identity of Peru from 1820 to 1850.[10] There were also productions created in Quechua, which highlights Ollantay as one of the first.[7]
