Hystory
The construction of the Teatro Aldiston of Sancrus began in 1718 AN and was completed in 1720 AN, following a civic initiative to provide Sancrus with a modern and representative venue for the performing arts. The Vegnese architect Leonardo Prugnetta envisioned an innovative building, with sober yet forward-looking forms that reflected the cultural renewal spreading across the nation at that time. From its inauguration, the theatre hosted not only plays and musical performances but also competitions, ceremonies, and public gatherings, quickly becoming a central hub of city life. As early as the 1720s AN and 1730s AN, it had already established itself as one of Vegno’s most prestigious stages, attracting companies and artists from across the country. Over the years, the Teatro Aldiston underwent several restorations and modern upgrades, yet it preserved its original architectural identity. Today, it is recognized as a symbol of continuity between Vegno’s theatrical tradition and its vision for the future.
