La Contrada Theatre

Teatro Popolare “La Contrada” was founded in Trieste on April 22, 1976, on the initiative of actors Orazio Bobbio, Ariella Reggio, Lidia Braico and director Francesco Macedonio. The original name of what was later to become La Contrada – Teatro Stabile di Trieste, was suggested by Ariella Reggio, with the intention of combining a term capable of evoking the company’s Trieste origins and a word that, in full harmony with the concept of “self-management” of the 1970s, indicated a theater that intended to stand as an alternative to the official one.

The establishment of the company and the start of artistic activities are, in truth, the culmination of a long journey matured by the founders through years of discussions, stimuli, and projects. Undoubtedly playing in favor of the birth of the Contrada is the common membership of the four founders in the Teatro Stabile del Friuli Venezia Giulia, within which, for many years, they had been carrying out their artistic activities.
