Corso A. Diaz, 47
Ever since the eighteenth century Romagna has been a land of great theatrical traditions: the Comunitativo of Ravenna opened in 1723, the one in Lugo in 1761, and the Comunale of Forli in 1776, two years before the Scala of Milan. Designed by architect Cosimo Morelli from Imola, the Comunale of Forlì is beautiful though small, well-proportioned to the population of the city. In the early nineteenth century it was partially expanded, although it remained limited in size.
