Teatro alle Tese
The buildings of the sixteenth-century Tese comprise four equal-sized structures (formerly open slipways); built in 1564 to designs by Jacopo Sansovino, these stand alongside each other and are connected by wide arches. After being opened to the public in 1999 - when they housed part of the dAPERTutto Biennale - they were then adapted for use as an open and modular theatre space, which the Biennale di Venezia conceived of as an area that could also be used for musical activities and congresses (with a total seating capacity of 500, divided between stalls and raised tiers). This open space can be used for experimentation, for creative studies, and for works of theatre, music and dance that require a non-traditional use of space and a non-traditional alignment of public and stage.
