Teatro Nacional Rubén Darío

Managua


One of the few Managua buildings to survive the 1972 earthquake, this 'temple to Nicaraguan art and culture' often has big-name international offerings on the main stage. It’s worth trying to catch some experimental jazz or performance art in the smaller Sala Experimental Pilar Aguirre. Prices vary.
